Did you know...

1941 - Dow Chemical researcher Ray McIntire accidentally creates Styrofoam, only a few years before the fast food revolution.

If you used a styrofoam cup or container today, on July 17th, 2508 it will still be sitting in a landfill.

McDonald's has smartly re-introduced Styrofoam for their Sweet Tea drink.

WTG McDonald's on being green.

hello lu!

I am no angel and wish I was better but I do have a mug at work, people who go through a TON of paper cups (they were styrofoam for a long time) - makes me crazy! and I have my travelling coffee mug as well.

even a little effort helps!

Yeah.....makes no sense not to reuse things when you can and substitute ceramic, glass and metal for coffee.
