Andy's actions

Climate & Ecosystems

Plastic Bag Recycling

When you get a sample in a biohazard bag, don't throw out the bag! As long as it is not visibly soiled it can be put into one of the canvas bags that are hanging around the lab. Worried that there is water in the bag because the sample was on ice? Don't! Just dump out the ice and shake it out, then stuff it in the canvas bags.

Styrofoam Reusing/Recycling

Rather than disassembling that box you received something in, check if it can be used by RLS or Sendouts. If not, don't throw away the Styrofoam insert; instead put it into one of the labeled bins on FB.2 or FB.4!
