The annual consumption of coffee paper cups in the UK is huge, but the recovery rate of coffee is less than 1%.
Fine coffee has a strict grading system. Green beans are usually preserved as "parchment beans" with endocarp removed before export. A rigorous grading process is carried out to ensure uniform quality. Moreover, the protection during storage and transportation is very important, such as the control of temperature and humidity, the control of ventilation, the avoidance of odor adsorption, etc. If these are not done well, then the beans with higher grades will become no longer fine.
Caffeine cups are often plastic-lined, difficult to recycle and often discarded, causing waste and environmental problems. A few days ago, foreign media reported on this issue that British Minister for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Stewart suggested to follow the plastic bag tax and levy a coffee cup tax when questioned in the House of Commons. Some Members suggested that we should start with technology. Recently, some media have revealed the recycling rate of British coffee cups. Make the public aware of the urgent need to solve the problem of coffee cup recycling.
It is reported that the recycling rate of takeaway coffee cups in the UK is less than 1%. According to Goodwin, founder of Britain's only coffee cup recycler,"well under 1%."
In fact, there are only 3 million takeaway coffee cups recycled to Stoneland or Cumbria paper cup recycling sites in the UK, but as many as 3 billion coffee cups are consumed annually in the UK, and the recycling rate is only about 0.1%, that is, only one in 1000 paper cups is recycled.
Local media, citing unnamed "advocates," accused the coffee chain of being responsible. Some of them have a distinctive recyclable logo on the cup. Consumers were misled into believing the mark would be recycled, when 99.9 percent of cups were not.
Whether the paper cups we use can be recycled into newspapers or egg boxes depends on where we throw them and whether the city collects them for recycling. Starbucks admitted when it introduced the 25p bring your own cup scheme that big retailers like Starbucks and Costa Rica had to take responsibility for it.
