Disposable cups are making their way to Merici.
It is estimated Australians use 1 billion disposable coffee cups each year.
An estimated up to 90 per cent of all disposable cups ended up in landfill, equating to around 60,000 kilograms of plastic waste per annum.
Here at Merici we are committed to sustainability promoting action.
Please support the reduction of waste and plastics in our environment by:
- Don’t take away — drink your coffee from ceramic cups at the cafe
- Bring your own reusable cup
- Refuse a lid — if you don’t need the lid don’t take one
- Choose a cup made from rapidly renewable resources like managed plantation paper board and separate the lid from the cup when disposing of the rubbish.
Cheers.
