“People like to visualize the impact of their actions, so the calculator on our website lets them forecast how much waste they’ll avoid each year by switching to reusables,” mentioned Kradin in an unique assertion. “For example, someone who drinks a couple of bottles of water per day, and then gets an afternoon coffee during the workweek, would avoid 720 plastic bottles and 250 coffee cups — either full plastic or plastic-lined paper. That’s a huge amount of avoided waste, which brings with it a savings of 684 pounds of CO2. Before long, this person will have kept one ton of CO2 out of our environment. We hope folks will visit us to model their own impact.”
