<p>Welcome to The Stripped Pod, where we have real, honest conversations about diabetes beyond the numbers.</p><p>On today&#39;s episode,  it is Climate Action Week, and we are talking about why diabetes creates so much medical waste. We&#39;ve got a Diabetes Dia-lemma from a listener who feels guilty every time they open a new sensor, and we are bringing in a medical packaging expert Dom Silveira to tell us what&#39;s actually recyclable and what is entirely out of your control when it comes to medical recycling.</p><p><a href="https://www.health.gov.au/find-a-medicare-ucc?language=en">Find your nearest Medicare Urgent Care Clinic</a> (<a href="http://health.gov.au">health.gov.au</a>)</p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/typerun_/">Follow Type Run’s Brodie on Instagram @typerun_</a></p><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/domenic-silveira-87987119b/?originalSubdomain=au">Connect with Dom Silveira at Veralis</a></p><p><a href="https://resmart.co/">Check out ReSmart Recycling</a> (<a href="http://resmart.co">resmart.co</a>)</p><p><a href="https://www.dcceew.gov.au/environment/protection/waste">Learn more about your local waste recycling programs</a> (<a href="http://DCCEEW.gov.au">DCCEEW.gov.au</a>)</p><p>Become our next diabetes diarist and <a href="https://airtable.com/appnyQImXJazjqQq3/pagEd1yPhYrbKDO3C/form">⁠submit your Diabetes Diaries entry⁠</a>.</p><p>Want to support our show?
