Green Resolutions

Week 29: I resolve to no longer accept and dispose of a single use cup when I get my take-away coffee or tea.

Date: 21-Jul-09

Buying just 5 cups of coffee a week adds up to 260 cups and lids thrown away each year. And that's just for me! By investing in a good reusable coffee mug, that the barista can easily refill each time I visit, I will save water, trees and energy and reduce waste to landfill. I can buy a reusable mug from coffee chains, department stores, or online from www.keepcup.com.au, www.biome.com.au, todae.com.au and more.

If I don't have a reusable mug, I can take a moment and sit and drink my tea or coffee in the caf itself  connect with the community and start my day relaxed and recharged. I will choose to drink fair trade coffee or tea too!

Commitment Statement

I resolve to no longer accept and dispose of a single use cup when I get my take-away coffee or tea.
