WHO lanserar MedZero – ett nytt klimatberäkningsverktyg!
31 maj 2026
Lancet MedZero blir en stor global databas med information om koldioxidavtryck för läkemedel, medicinska och kirurgiska produkter, diagnostiska tjänster och vårdförlopp.
Last week, MedZero was launched at the World Health Assembly. The platform allows users to enter the name of a drug, device, procedure, diagnostic test, or service and receive an estimate of its lifecycle-associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, along with a red-yellow-green assessment of estimate quality. It draws from a curated set of lifecycle assessments (LCAs) where available and uses a multi-region input-output (MRIO) model to fill data gaps. Estimates are customized to the user’s location.
