Do you have lab glass you’d like to rehome to future scientists? Participate in our Lab Glass Rehoming Program!! 🧪♻️

To participate:
1) Separate & organize your items that you wish to rehome, making sure they aren’t broken, chipped, or have residue. These items cannot be rehoused but we can still help you properly dispose of them.
2) Set up a consultation by emailing us at greenlab@uga.edu. We’ll come by for a brief in lab consultation to review the items.
3) Box the items up after we’ve given you the green light.
4) We’ll pick up your items and move them for you on your behalf!

Participating is easy and supports young scientists, as the glass is rehoused to k-12 schools!

To learn more about lab circularity and the UGA Sustainable Science & Green Labs Program, come visit us at the UGA Circularity Engagement Fair this Wednesday, from 11am-3pm. 🌱🌎
