Operating rooms contribute between 20% to 70% of hospital waste. Neurointerventional procedures, in particular, generate a substantial amount of that waste: an average of 8 kg per case, recently aggravated by the COVID-19 pandemic. JNIS Editor-In-Chief, Felipe C. Albuquerque, interviews Pey Ling Shum, Monash Health, Clayton, Victoria, Australia, about her recent paper “Environmental sustainability in neurointerventional procedures: a waste audit” - https://jnis.bmj.com/content/12/11/1053 Please also read the related commentary "Greening the neurointerventional suite" - https://jnis.bmj.com/content/12/11/1037
