Carry a reusable cup
Opt out of single-use cups next time you order your coffee by carrying a reusable cup with you.
120 BILLION disposable cups are used by Americans each year.
Benefits
- Avoid single-use plastic used in many takeaway coffee cups
- Lots of types available including collapsable, heat-retaining, leak-proof lids and different sizes, so you can find the perfect one for you and your needs
- Save money in coffee shops that offer discounts for bringing your own cup
Challenges
- The environmental footprint of one reusable cup is much higher than one disposable cup, so you need to make sure you continue using it to make an impact
- Some plastics can leech toxicants in small quantities into drinks and food. Choose a non-plastic cup to avoid this risk
