Eco-Tip 26

Every week we'll post another easy tip to help you be environmentally friendly.

Eco-Tip 26

Have Sharpie markers available for plastic cups the next time you have a party. If you're throwing a party, you don't want people drinking out of your family's fine Macy's glass set because you know while they're playing Guitar Hero at 11:30 PM, someone is bound to forget their Sprite is precariously on the arm of the couch and smash it all over the floor. At the same time, however, you don't want them using your not-so-fancy red cups because people would rather throw out their cup and get a new one every time they want a drink than remember which is theirs. The solution is to have a Sharpie by the cups and some obvious sign telling everyone to write their name on the cup once they take it. You will save money and the environment at the same time (have you noticed they tend to go hand-in-hand?)!

And a big happy birthday to Dina Kapengut!!
