A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
I do wonder how much waste is produced from medical equipment, scientific experiments and safety equipment.
Personally I feel it's justified as opposed to like plastic packaging, dumping waste water and that whole thing but yeah would like to see a better breakdown of waste production
More than anyone wants to admit and it usually gets incinerated for safety reasons, depending on how good your regulations are. Labs have to contract services for this.
Nothing probably compares to the sheer plastic waste of a large commercial kitchen. Everything comes in plastic from Cisco. And you wrap everything in plastic and just toss it over and over again.
I think you mean Sysco not Cisco lol
Cisco needs to open a restaurant where they cook with heat from servers.
No he meant Sisko. As in Joseph Sisko. Of Earth?
Makes a fierce Jambalaya,
I did but talk to text got me fucked up lol.
LOL, so true...At least disposing them into the proper bin makes you feel bet... Nevermind.
Straight to lab waste. BURN IT ALL AS A SACRIFICE TO THE LAB GODS.
We use so many clean room wipes I try not to think about it.
