Offer a discount to customers with reusable takeaway cups
Surfrider Foundation Hunter Region Branch volunteers are engaging with local Newcastle businesses through the Responsible Cafes program, which connects responsible cafes with conscious consumers by encouraging cafes to offer a discount to customers with reusable takeaway cups.
1 billion takeaway cups and lids are landfilled or littered each year in Australia and, contrary to popular belief, they are poorly recyclable and only rarely composted due to inadequate industrial composting facilities and the difficulty of getting the cups/lids there. The Responsible Cafe’s program is a national project developed by Responsible Cafes. Surfrider Foundation Branches are proud to be apart of the many local community groups implementing this targeted and effective program around Australia.
