If you have to get coffee on the road, most coffee houses are happy to fill your personal (reusable) cup.

I reuse and reuse and reuse my coffee mugs- until they break, they never get thrown away! Er, recycled, I mean.

A few years ago, nobody would refill your own coffee cup (I think it was about food hygiene...) I remember being looked at very sideways when I tried to have my own cup filled.

These days everyone seems to be doing it! Brilliant!

So if you must drink takeaway coffee:
a) Take your own cup
b) Ask for fairly traded, organic coffee
c) Ask for organic milk or soy milk

And use your sleeve to polish your halo rather than a disposable napkin ;)

I keep a coffee mug at work, I also use it for oatmeal or soup. I also have my own water cup at work.

I seldom buy coffee out anymore. I make it at home or get it dispensed into my own mug at work. Sometimes I bring a carafe of cofee with me to social activities so that people don't feel like they have to buy cofee out.
