- Ana Marielle Ginete was just tagged in a comment: Hi Stefanie,Thank you for sharing this.If you’re comfortable sharing, I’m curious about two things:How did you actually “green” your lab list in practice, did you follow a specific checklist or go experiment by experiment and substitute?Is your My Personal Care Products SDS Analysis activity available in the GCTLC Library or elsewhere? I think many teachers (especially those managing stockrooms like @Ana Marielle Ginete and @Aira Anibail Llevado) could adapt that idea.Thanks again for adding such concrete examples to this conversation....
- Ana Marielle Ginete was just tagged in a comment: Hi all, I’m circling back to this thread because @Ana Marielle Ginete’s question about what can’t go down the drain still comes up a lot, especially in schools without strong EHS support.The resources and stories from @Stefanie Loomis, @Saskia van Bergen and @Sarah Briggs are really helpful. I’d love to hear a bit more detail on two practical things:What simple system do you actually use day-to-day to decide what goes down the drain vs. into a waste container? (Wall chart, district list, your own spreadsheet, something else?)Has anyone turned a stockroom clean-out or inventory update into a student learning activity (e.g., “green audit,” safer substitutions, microscale redesign)? What did that look like in practice?Even a brief example or template would be really valuable for teachers who are juggling both teaching and stockroom management....
- Ana Marielle Ginete was just tagged in a comment: Hi all- there are great comments in this thread! I think @Ana Marielle Ginete makes a great point that controlling which chemicals get used, and in what quantities, is a great way to manage chemicals in the classroom, and a great way to keep track of this information is with an up-to-date inventory! And @Jerald Villarmino also raised a very common concern about what to do with chemicals that need to be disposed of as hazardous waste, which is something I want to highlight in this month's OWT webinar. If I can second @Stefanie Loomis, it is SO helpful to make connections and form relationships with the custodians, administrators, and Environmental Health and Safety leaders working in your school building and/or district. I'll be sharing my personal experience this week about how these sorts of relationships helped me facilitate a stockroom clean out and handle some unexpected discoveries! Also, @Saskia van Bergen makes a great point about state-specific resources. While there is a lot of widely available information related to lab safety and best practices for chemical management, it is always important to learn about your state and local requirements. I've worked in academic labs in three different states, and each one had different guidance for drain disposal of chemicals. I'm excited to talk more about this topic on Thursday!...
- Ana Marielle Ginete was just tagged in a comment: Thanks for this great list of resources @Saskia van Bergen , this should answer several of the questions above, especially for @Jerald Villarmino and @Ana Marielle Ginete who were trying to sort where to dispose of chemicals that cannot go down the drain. These resources, along with @Stefanie Loomis example of how to bring other school personnel into the process and make her classroom/lab gradually a very safe place, should help your efforts considerably. ...
- Ana Marielle Ginete was just tagged in a comment: Managing a stockroom while teaching sounds like a real challenge!Also, @Ana Marielle Ginete brought up a great point like how do other educators handle disposal for chemicals that can’t go down the drain?Personally, to save time, my go-to is just Googling it when I’m unsure. But sometimes, I end up draining acids or bases with lots of running water.Would love to hear what’s working for others!...
