Every medicine we take leaves a carbon trail. This first webinar in the PharMap series traces the carbon footprint of the pharmaceutical industry across its full lifecycle, identifying where the biggest climate impacts arise in production and supply chains. Bringing together research and practical experience, the webinar will explore how we can better understand, address and reduce the climate impact of medicines, and how this knowledge can inform action across the healthcare system.

As climate change and healthcare increasingly intersect, coordinated action across the pharmaceutical supply chain will be essential to advancing greener and more transparent medicines and supporting the transition to a more sustainable healthcare system.
