To eliminate single-use plastic and fragile glass cups in the workplace and replace them with durable, reusable metal cups, promoting sustainability and reducing waste.

From the list I received from my area is different ones are only for certain counties. Most have a list of what they will accept. Closest one to me is approximately 12 miles.

I was completely surprised that what is labeled as recyclable is really not recyclable. It's CRAZY!! Something needs to be done about how companies label their packaging.

What most surprised me was that it can affect our neurological system. I also read that it may be some cause of diabetes. I need to do more research on this subject matter.

With much talk about how the chemicals used in making plastic and that it leaches into our food, water and air, I now know that I will be more aware of using such items.

I believe it will take everyone to participate in making the world a better place. I feel I need to do my part. I hope to incorporate some of the things I learn and put them to use in my everyday life.
