Factoid: Let’s talk ‘coffee’:
If you or a staff member use a disposable container for your daily cup of coffee, you are generating 22.75 pounds of waste per year.
· Then double and triple it as you or your staff may NOT even reuse their morning container for lunch…or coffee break in the afternoon.
· Estimates are, just for coffee cups, a single employee generates over 100 lbs of waste per year.
· Multiply that times ANYONE on your staff who drinks coffee or takes water…and imagine the environmental impact?
· Worse yet, even though styrofoam is becoming ‘recyclable’, do you really think a large percentage of styrofoam cups are being ‘separated’ for recycling? No, of course not. Visit any landfill and tell me what’s blowing around…forever? Styrofoam, more than anything.
Solution? Reusable and 'fast acting' biodegradable hot/cold mugs. Yes, we have them, both in eVolve & BioDPS materials. They are microwaveable, dishwasher safe & yet when disposed of, biodegrade ten-twenty times faster than plasic/ceramic counterparts. Ask for a sample. Ask for the PowerPoint presentation. I'll send it to you.
