Leading The Charge
Houston Methodist has long been a leader in health care, providing world-class medical care to our patients while also striving to be a responsible corporate citizen. As part of this commitment, Houston Methodist has established an Office of Sustainability to drive our efforts toward a more environmentally conscious future.
The Office of Sustainability is leading the charge in reducing the organization's carbon footprint and promoting sustainable practices throughout the organization. By prioritizing sustainability, we are not only making a positive impact on the environment, but also setting an example for other organizations to follow.
Our Objectives
- Lead system organizational collaboration to educate, strategize and implement long-term sustainability projects that foster innovation and financial stewardship.
- Engage employees and entity sustainability teams to conceive and lead organic, grassroots sustainability projects that align with our I CARE values and showcase how we lead medicine.
- Grow strong community and industry partnerships that support efforts to realize a local economy that conserves the environment and protects health and well-being.
- Research objective connections among our health, our environment and our well-being in partnership with the Center for Health and Nature, while measuring and reporting the environmental impact of our operations and the progress made to reduce that impact.
