Addressing Global Plastics Crisis
Plastic waste is generated at a rate approaching 400 Mega
tonnes per year.
Healthcare is a major contributor to this single-use plastics problem, is the 5th biggest greenhouse case emitter on the planet.
Only 10% of global healthcare waste is recycled.
If the Irish acute hospitals used on-site bio-digestion it would mean: 3,600 tons of food waste eliminated per year,
converted to nutrient rich fertiliser.
