Hello Jackman adults! I was wondering… do you like coffee? And where do you get your coffee? Starbucks? Tim Hortons? McDonalds? You probably get your coffee in a disposable cup, don’t you? Most people do. Unfortunately, many people make the mistake of disposing their cup in a recycling bin. Well, the truth is, these cups actually go in the garbage. Well, you can recycle the lid and the paper sleeve, but not the cup. So get it right Jackman! Put your garbage in the right place. And tell your friends as well.
By the way... here’s a better solution. Don’t bother using a disposable cup. Instead, take along a reusable coffee cup every time you visit your favourite coffee shop. No garbage required.
For more information about what you can and can’t recycle, please check out Toronto Waste Wizard.
