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.
