title: CRC changes are no licence for inaction.
abstract: Last Autumn's Comprehensive Spending Review included what international environmental consultancy Environ describes as "an unexpected update" on the Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC), with a change in its structure and timelines. Here Environ principal Debra Hobbs explains the implications for the healthcare estate, explains the steps organisations obligated under the scheme need to take over the next 3-4 years, and cautions them against "hitting the pause button".
