Up for the Cup!

It’s crazy how unaware we are with what is going on within our town. A lot of us are aware of environmental issues but I bet you didn’t know that 23,000 disposable cups are thrown away in Northampton every day. Don’t worry, neither did I if I’m honest.

BUT there is a fab campaign which is launching to raise aware on how not recycling your cups can effect our world! #upforthecup

Companies like Starbucks, Costa Coffee, and Greggs are working with them by providing recyclable coffee cups. The motto is “Sip, Separate, Recycle” which stands for emptying your cup, separating the straw and other parts of the cup, then putting it in the right section of the bin. You may this this is basic knowledge but a lot of people cba to do so.

In one of my modules at uni, we are working on the campaign which I think is pretty cool! So keep your eyes peeled for these bins and content around the uni, shopping centre, train station, and online content!
