Earth Day Tip Steel Cup
Earth Day Tip #2
Earth Day is coming up next month. The Manchester Sustainability Committee is offering regular everyday tips we all can do to show a little love to Mother Earth. This week’s tip is ….
Those ubiquitous single use coffee cups look like paper, but in fact they’re lined with polyethylene, a type of non-biodegradable plastic, and can’t be composted or recycled. In the US it’s estimated that we throw away more than 50 billion plastic-lined paper coffee cups with lids every year. Bring a reusable thermal steel cup with you when you travel, and ask the server to refill it. The Earth will thank you and your drink will taste better!
