Green Dialysis: Our shared responsibility

Chronic Dialysis is a life-preserving therapy. At the same time the environmental impact of dialysis therapy seems to be particularly
high.[1] It consumes a significant amount of water and energy and produces a high amount of waste and CO2 emissions.[2]

It is our understanding of green dialysis to aim for decreasing the environmental burden of dialysis therapy by taking measures to reduce the consumption of energy and water, the amount of waste and the emission of CO2.
Green Dialysis should not only be a theoretical concept or discussion. There are multiple areas to take actions which may decrease the environmental burden of dialysis treatment in the daily clinical practice.
