7 million disposable coffee cups are used every day in the UK, which equates to 2.5 billion cups per year. That's 7 million disposable cups going to landfill every day.
Less than 1% of disposable coffee cups are recycled in the UK due to the plastic lining that makes them difficult to recycle.
The production of disposable coffee cups contributes to the use of 4.1 million trees, 1.3 billion liters of water, and 23,000 tonnes of waste every year.
By using a reusable coffee cup, you can save an average of £100 per year if you buy a coffee every day.
