Our department collected 14.4 kg of @GBO_NL pipette tip inserts in only 1 month (pictured). 😱 What a shame that Greiner doesn't want to reuse them. Can anyone recommend any tip fill companies that do? #AcademicChatter Green Labs - NL #sustainablescience

Join us at the next Green Labs - NL community meeting on December 6th to discuss the topic of lab plastic waste! Any tips to reduce, reuse or recycle? ♻️

A call to scientists and education innovators; are you also developing sustainability frameworks for biomedical education? Or are you integrating #planetaryhealth into healthcare education? Please get in touch! We love to create a network and share ideas 💡💚 #Sustainability

Love this piece of advice - write cool-down or warm-up times for key temperatures on lab equipment so you can better plan experiments, and equally know when to turn things off. We've added it to LEAN Green Labs UK now :)

One of the greatest challenges with sustainability is that most of the actions we need are completely voluntary. We don't take those same risks for eg in health & safety. With the timeline we're on, I'd debate if that's the best way to get where we need to be?

This week @TeunBousema presented to our LEAF in NL community, giving us plenty of food for thought on the footprint of academic travel. Why not implement your own annual carbon budget to help prioritize work trips & conferences, & keep that footprint light! 🦶🚆🚙✈️🌍

The 7 hottest days on Earth in the last 100,000+ years all happened in the last week: July 6 ~ 17.23°C / 63.01°F July 7 ~ 17.20°C / 62.96°F July 4 ~ 17.18°C / 62.93°F July 5 ~ 17.18°C / 62.92°F July 8 ~ 17.17°C / 62.90°F July 10 ~ 17.12°C / 62.81°F July 9 ~ 17.11°C / 62.79°F

Spread the word! 📢💚 Green Labs NL is looking for new core members to help us make science in the Netherlands more sustainable! Check out the vacancies: tinyurl.com/GreenLabsNL

With the transition towards just & sustainable research practices, the question of how funding organisations can support this transition are more commonplace. This is the main question to be addressed in the upcoming event ‘Sparking green movement in the Dutch funding landscape’.

Very excited for the event today 'Sparking Green movement in the Dutch Funding Landscape'. We anticipate meaningful & fruitful discussion to lead us to SMART goals in moving this important topic forward.

Read Benoit Nicolet and my paper showing for the 1st time that reuse, be it plastic or glass, saves money and carbon in labs for some commom consumables. Late of us to share accepted paper, but more to come on this important topic. #AcademicTwitter journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

Our meetings are mostly online as we live across the Netherlands. Last Saturday, we met in Utrecht for our strategy meeting. It was good to meet each other and to discuss our vision and goals for the next six months Marit de Kort Gabriela Dankova Rolf Slaats joepsprangers (1/3)
