DON'T REFUSE TO REUSE


Did you know up to 200 million coffee cups are thrown away in Ireland every year. That's equivilant to 366 a minute!

While the lids and paper sleeves can be recycled the cup itself cannot as it's covered in a plastic polyethylene which can't be recycled.

We can all do our bit to reduce this, by bringing a recyclable cup when were going out, or leave one in the car. Shops and coffee houses often offer a discount when you use your own cup.
