COVID-19 Waste Calculator
Estimates your COVID-related plastic pollution and suggests ways to minimize it.
COVID-19 Waste Calculator gives you a faster way to work through practical calculation scenarios without rebuilding the same calculation from scratch every time. Start with Number of disposable masks used per week, Number of hand sanitizer bottles used per month, Number of takeout containers used per week, and Number of rapid COVID-19 tests used per month and use the live outputs to estimate Estimated COVID-19 tests used per year, Estimated takeout containers used per year, and Estimated hand sanitizer bottles used per year in one pass. This page is built to help you compare scenarios quickly, validate rough assumptions, and move into a related calculator when you need a second angle on the same problem.
