Implementation of decarbonisation actions in General Practice to help achieve a net zero NHS. A mixed methods study of institutional, organisational, professional, and patient factors (GPNET-0 study)
Updated 18 October 2024
The NHS is committed to reducing the carbon emissions produced from its activities. Research is urgently needed to learn how this can be done. This project will discover how general practice can contribute. Firstly, we will review current evidence to identify what is already known about the processes, behaviours and activities that support actions to reduce carbon emissions in general practice. We will then survey 500 general practices, with questions aimed at discovering how they currently think about and take actions to respond to climate change. We will then select 12 general practices who will be followed for 9 months or longer while they carry out one or more actions aimed at reducing carbon emissions. We will collect data on how they plan and take actions, challenges faced and how these were overcome. To understand patients’ views, we will invite 150 at each of the practices to complete a survey and will interview some of them. We will also investigate the costs involved in adopting different ways of cutting carbon emissions, and finally explore the views of key stakeholders (local, regional and national policy, commissioning and primary care) about how general practices can be supported to reduce carbon emissions.
