Small changes make a big difference, especially for daily drinkers. Individually, one cup of coffee purchased every day in a disposable container contributes about 22.75 pounds of waste per year.
For coffee, buy a reusable metal thermos or cup. For office events, use washable and reusable cups or mugs and use compostable paper or reusable plates.
