Plastic waste in academic biomedical sciences is estimated to account for around 2% of global plastic waste. Incorporating the 5 R\u2019s – Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Reform & Recycle, and by putting Refuse first and Recycle last, help\n to take actions to try to reduce the amount of waste entering and leaving the lab.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
