Do Just One Thing

Danny Seo on

Just how bad can single-use paper coffee cups be for the environment? Turns out, they can be pretty bad. These aren't just paper cups, they're paper cups lined with plastic. When these cups degrade, the plastic lining becomes microplastics that are released into our waterways. Not to mention nearly 6.5 million trees are cut down every year to make the pulp for the cups. Often the cups are incinerated, which releases toxins and chemicals into the air. Even more reasons to make your own coffee at home or to travel with a reusable cup.
