A few days back I happened to visit a Coffee shop and I was amazed with the number of Plastic cups being used to drink the various beverages. Most of it, I believe reaches the landfills. I didn’t want that. There’s enough already in those landfills and it is not the best solution to waste management.
That got me thinking, what is it that can be done to solve this issue? They can either recycle it or re-use it. Recycling will be taken care of by the coffee shop and re-using? Re-using, by the coffee drinkers!
Here is a list of reuses for Plastic Cups, experiment and share the knowledge!
