Replacing Millions of Plastic Cups with Eco Friendly Coffee, Artistic Coffee Mugs - One Sip At A Time

200 million. That's the estimated number of plastic cups we throw away each year. That's right - our nation of less than 5 million - New Zealand - throws away on average 40  plastic cups per person each year. That number is 800 million in Australia! Now some would say that's something to think about the next time you sip on your morning cuppa!

 

Plastic's damage to our environment is a serious concern as of today in 2018. We've reached the point where plastic has entered the food chain and is present in micro quantities in the food we buy today.

 

Clearly something needs to be done. And someone definitely decided to do something. "Look, we all live with the question over our heads - 'does my recycling actually end up in a landfill?' " says Aucklander Darren Turner - founder and general manager of Cuppa Coffee Cup.

"If it's a disposable cup that's lined with plastic, or even a compostable cup in an area without the right facility to compost, then that's probably a yes".
