No disposable cup week

kacie

I use an e.coffee cup which is made from bamboo. I make my tea in it before leaving for work and have it when I arrive there.

Yes! In fact they ordered her a new identical one, plus gave her a costa branded one, so now she has 2! :beer:

Am I the only one left who thinks paying for an overpriced hot beverage is a waste of money when I have a kettle and teabags at home?

Good luck making coffee with them!

It's a good job the coffee companies don't rely on me for their profits as i can honestly say i've NEVER bought a coffee on the go. If i am travelling i take a bottle of water(re-filled with tap water(hundreds of times now)) with me, saves on the cost and better for me.
It's a no disposable cup week for me every week

Disposable cups are not that bad environmentally.
The poly cups are actually better than the paper cups although almost everywhere now uses the paper cups as they feel more premium.
Costs about 3 pennies per cup in bulk less than 10% of that will be energy
So at most 0.1 KWh per cup all in

Go one day without heating your home in winter and its about 1,000 disposable cups worth of energy

But it's water. It's not coffee. It's a bit like having a slice of bread for your Christmas Dinner!
