Sunday, September 29, is National Coffee Day. To commemorate the occasion, we have a new Beyond the Blue blog post that answers the puzzling question of whether single-use coffee cups are recyclable or not.
It’s tricky, as only certain parts of single-use cups are recyclable. For example, most paper cups are coated with plastic to prevent leaks, which means they belong in the trash. Still, the lid and paper sleeve generally are recyclable. On the chill side, most plastic cold cups and their lids are recyclable, but plastic straws are a no-no for the recycling bin because they’re too small to make it through the sorting equipment. Rule of thumb: Anything smaller than a credit card should never be placed in the recycling bin.
Read this month’s Beyond the Blue blog post to learn the ins and outs of recycling to-go coffee cups.
If you want to be a superstar, use a reusable cup and straw whenever possible!
