Some years ago I read an article that more and more hospitals (in Germany) are getting rid of their sterilisation facilities, because single use tools can be ordered in bulk and the facilities + personnel are costly. Profit-driven healthcare is such a nightmare for the environment.
It's not like sterilizing is free either, it uses a lot of heat energy which in most places means you're burning methane on the grid. That also releases co2 emissions.
