‘Come and be part of our experiment! Have a seat and taste the music’. There is no better experience: enjoying lounge music, enjoying your favorite drink, enjoying the present.
The moment to throw away your single-use sustainable cup arrives. Destruction. Danger. Death.
The sound of the future. The future is now. You are a cup away from destroying your planet. Act now, don’t wait until it is too late.
Recycling doesn’t always go as planned. What is commonly perceived as green, may not be the cure at all. Single-use cups are not as sustainable as stated.
Every time a paper cup is produced, 0.58L of water is wasted and 61g of CO2 are emitted. Over 20 million trees are cut down each year to meet the global demand for single-use paper cups. Also, WWF forecasts that by the end of 2030 eco-consumers will use 33% more single-use cups than they do now. More than 90% of the cups we produce aren’t recycled, ending up in landfill, releasing methane and contributing to global warming.
Open your eyes: your everyday routines silently destroy the future of your planet. You are tricking yourself into thinking of being sustainable when you are just getting closer to the end.
