      We are all gonna love it with our next fish and chips:

      Takeaway cups and takeaway food containers (including coffee cups) are 23% (or the second-largest category) of litter by volume in NSW.
      Plastic and polystyrene break down into smaller pieces in marine ecosystems and are ingested by birds, fish, turtles and other creatures. Choice link.

        Oh so take it you have never used plastic before huh, never used a product that is eco friendly and right umm you don't drive a car, get around on a bike?

        • +1

          Im sure they would, but how many uses do you get out of your bike or car?

        • Your reasoning sucks bro

        Do you neg fast food deals as well because they contribute to an early death? Maybe neg a PS4 deal because it’s rotting dem young whipper snappers brains?

    Just so you know, you can recycle coffee cups at selected 7-Eleven stores via Simply Cups.

      • Yep this would work

      • +1

        I think if people are going to plan a trip and take their used cups for 7/11 they might aswell use keeper cups and just rinse them,

        The issue isn't cups that end up in land fill, the issue is cups that end up in water ways, often because even when bins are full, people place them on top and they then blow into gutters,

    • -3

      While that's a good initiative, the amount of energy, water and green house emissions going into extracting oil, producing a cup, transporting it to the point of sale and then over again to the recycling plant in Ballarat just for a single drink is totally ridiculous comparing to just having a reusable one:

      The study found that a plastic reusable cup breaks even with the paper cup after 17 uses, and a ceramic cup after 39 uses. Choice link

      • +1

        I think my ceramic cups have been used way more than 39 times, and my reuseable one way more than 17 times.

        • +1

          This is talking about the energy and resources used to create the product, not the amount of times you’ve used it. So after using a reusable keepcup or similar, 39 times, it has broken even with it’s effort to create - whereas a ceramic cup takes longer than that.

        • +1

          @lasterato:

          That's not what it says.

          It says exactly what garage sale said.

          The study found that a plastic reusable cup breaks even with the paper cup after 17 uses and a ceramic cup after 39 uses

          Which means once you have used a reusable plastic cup 17 times the total energy/material impact that went into the plastic cup has broken even with a single paper cup. Every use after that is saving energy/materials.

          To put it another way, if you throw away your reusable plastic cup after 18 uses it makes less of an environmental impact than using one disposable plastic cup.

          You need to use a ceramic cup 39 times for the same impact (it is not more than 39 as you have indicated)

          You need to use a glass cup 15 times for the same impact.

    Non-recyclable landfill.

      Doesn't paper decompose rather quickly?

      • +5

        Not when it's coated with plastic, to stop the coffee soaking through.

      • It depends on the conditions where the paper is.

        Some old landfills are being mined and they are finding things in 'perfect' condition.
        Things like newspapers from the 1980s that are perfectly readable.

          home compost should be good if it doesnt have plastic lining for waterproofing

        • +2

          @tomkun01:

          Which these and most other coffee cups do. That's how they stop them leaking.

        • @tomkun01: you can actually compost paper cups with plastic, the worms eat the paper and leave the plastic, but how many people use paper cups at home ??? use ceramic and into dish washer.

          only offices and take-aways use disposable cups and can't see someone bothering to take home to compost the office waste.

        • +1

          @garage sale:

          Just because you can doesnt mean you should.

          Composting plastic lined paper cups means that the plastic works its way into the environment. It doesnt disappear into nothing.

    Now need to find a cheaper grey import for the same !

    These are so so so so bad for the environment.

      how is paper bad for the environment?

      • +2

        Brogden didn't say paper, he said these.

        These are lined with plastic so they cannot be recycled and pollute the environment when not put in a bin.

        • can you confirm whether or not this particular cup is lined with plastic? obviously it's not a good thing for the environment if they are. otherwise it goes in my compost

        • +4

          @tomkun01:

          All paper cups like this are, it's how they stop them from leaking.

          These cups are not 100% paper.

          The cups aren't listed as biodegradable which means they are not coated in a biodegradable liner like PLA.

      • Paper-based cups are usually lined with a membrane of polyethylene (plastic) to make them waterproof, but it means they are not recyclable alongside paper or cardboard, or biodegradable.

        Up to 90 per cent of all disposable cups ended up in landfill, equating to around 60,000 kilograms of plastic waste per annum.
        The ocean is also turning into a plastic soup and, given the ocean is the source of all life on this planet, we are going to end up choking. ABC link.

          Thanks @JetBombat for raising awareness of the harm caused by the tens of millions of disposable cups used each year in Australia. When I learned about it a while back it definitely made me change my habits.

    • These are so so so so bad for the environment

      ..then proceeds to buy all the stock

      Oh Broden, you've done it again.

  • I don’t need it but I too bought 10… damn you ozbargain and my poor self control.

  • +2

    Sorry, but I think it is time for us to become responsible adults for using our planet resources and not leaving rubbish for FIVE decades just so we can have a single drink.

    Planet Ark says that about 60,000 kilograms of plastic waste from coffee cups is directed to landfill each year in Australia, where it can take about 50 years to break down.

    • +3

      I agree with Jet. We definitely shouldn't be buying non-recyclable single use coffee cups. I may still get 7/11 coffees at work but I am tying more and more to use my keep cup. Every little bit makes a difference and just because you may purchase some wasteful items definitely doesn't mean you shouldn't try to reduce your impact on this planet in other ways.

    "These Keji Paper Cups are ideal for use at morning teas and other events or for restocking the cup dispenser at your water cooler or coffee machine"

    Our office has a dishwasher and ceramic cups and real glasses …the bin fills up and overflows with paper cups from the local coffee shops (by 9:30 am) as people don't like to drink the instant coffee which is provided for free….

    If we have visitors, someone brings the water carafe and some glasses for guests, people bring their own drink bottles which they already have at their desks if you are an employee.

    Cant see people making a cup of coffee for themselves at home and using a paper cup and then throwing into bin …. "oh no, we've run out of paper cups, can't have a coffee at home so now I need to get dressed, go to supermarket and buy some more cups"

  • +1

    Everyone is buying… But I can't see any stock anywhere. :(

  • +1

    not going to neg, but agree that these disposable coffee cups should be avoided as far as possible.

  • Meh earth will explode, meteorite might crash again and there will.be a world population culling so who cares. Any difference will be worthless when no one is around, all waste is vapourised and the next species trys
