Cute and environmentally-friendly reusable coffee cups
By now we know how rough plastic waste can be on the planet, and buying one or several coffees a day can result in a lot of unnecessary rubbish. Reusable coffee cups assuage the guilty feeling of contributing to landfill and can make for pretty sleek accessories too.
Even better, most reusable cups will keep your coffee hot much longer than a single-use cup and often have a splash-resistant lid to help out the accident-prone. They also come in some pretty nice and bright colours.
While some of these mugs sit at a bit of a higher price point, they're an excellent investment if you drink a lot of coffee, as the cost per use will be tiny. Think of all the plastic waste you could prevent!
