SINGLE-USE SUCKS.
Have you ever stood in line at a coffee shop and noticed that even though they have real mugs behind the counter, everyone sitting down is drinking out of throw-away cups with plastic lids? How about when you grab a quick meal at a casual restaurant and you’re served on disposable plates with plastic knives and forks? Or when you ordering takeout food to your home or office, you also get plastic cutlery and extra napkins and all this stuff you don’t need or want. Are materials destined for one use yet designed to last forever really worth trashing your community?
BUT THERE’S A BETTER WAY THAN THROW-AWAY.
Clean Water Action’s Rethink Disposable has worked with more than 300 restaurants in the Bay to help them transition from single-use to reuse. And in addition to being good for the environment, every single business has saved money.
