		<description>Mark,

Too true... paper cups are "cool." What some independent coffee shops do in America is give you a discount if you bring your own mug.  It's never very much, but I suppose it's a good start.  Maybe they should start charging for the cups.  I think some grocery stores do that for the bags.  We need to start taking some of these drastic measures soon...

I think the red cup thing is pretty brilliant from a funny secular point of view, but it's probably just a marketing thing to them... same with all these companies jumping on the "green" and "sustainability" bandwagon.

Keep the articles coming!</description>
