Question of the Week

How many disposable coffee cups are estimated to be thrown away every day at OSU?

Answer

3,000 single-use coffee cups are thrown away each day on campus.

Disposable coffee cups are never recyclable, and are only sometimes compostable. Avoid creating unnecessary waste by using a reusable coffee mug whenever purchasing coffee. After all, you only need one!

Congratulations to Sahar for winning this week’s Question!
