\ud83d\udcda <\/b>Learning Objectives<\/h5>

Students will:<\/span><\/p>

  • Understand the environmental impact of disposable products<\/span><\/li>
  • Learn how small behavior changes can lead to system-wide improvements<\/span><\/li>
  • Develop advocacy, communication, and sustainability habits<\/span><\/li><\/ul>
    \ud83d\udca1 <\/b>What to Do<\/h5>

    Encourage students to bring and use their own reusable cups instead of disposable paper or foam cups. Suggested activities include:<\/span><\/p>

    • Track personal cup use for one week using a class chart<\/span><\/li>
    • Create posters or PSA videos promoting reusable cups<\/span><\/li>
    • Design personalized reusable cup art or slogans<\/span><\/li>
    • Host a \u201cNo Disposable Cup\u201d challenge day at school<\/span><\/li><\/ul>
      \ud83c\udf0d <\/b>Why It Matters<\/h5>

      Disposable cups may seem harmless, but their environmental cost is significant:<\/span><\/p>

      • Billions of cups are discarded yearly after just one use<\/span><\/li>
      • Most are not recyclable due to plastic linings or foam materials<\/span><\/li>
      • They contribute to landfill overflow, ocean pollution, and energy waste<\/span><\/li><\/ul>

        Using a personal reusable cup helps reduce waste, cut emissions, and conserve resources.<\/span><\/p>

        \ud83d\udd2c <\/b>The Science Behind It<\/h5>
        • Most paper cups are lined with plastic, making them nearly impossible to recycle<\/span><\/li>
        • Foam cups (polystyrene) take centuries to break down, releasing microplastics<\/span><\/li>
        • A single disposable cup wastes water, trees, fossil fuels, and energy<\/span><\/li>
        • Reusable cups offset their environmental footprint within 10\u201320 uses<\/span><\/li>
        • Encourage students to listen to scientific perspectives on plastic pollution<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
