Woman calls out company for seemingly tricking customers with product alternative: 'Absolutely warped our perceptions'
TikToker Aubri, along with Connor R, criticized a trend where coffee shops serve iced coffee in plastic bags, claiming it's a sustainable alternative to to-go cups. Aubri argues this is greenwashing, as the bags are likely non-recyclable and destined for landfills, unlike PET cups which are recyclable. The trend, similar to Southeast Asia's dabao bags, contradicts efforts to reduce plastic use, as seen in Singapore's plastic bag charge. Aubri suggests that reusable cups are the most sustainable option for to-go coffees.

One in five Irish adults use the ‘toilet as a bin’, new survey finds
A survey commissioned by Uisce Éireann and conducted by Behaviour & Attitudes reveals that one in five Irish adults use the toilet to dispose of unsuitable items, with younger adults under 35 being the most likely to do so. The survey highlights a decrease in this behavior since 2018, but still emphasizes the environmental impact of flushing non-degradable items like wipes, even those labeled 'flushable.' Irish Water and Clean Coasts urge the public to only flush pee, poo, and paper to protect the environment, particularly rivers and coastal areas. Key figures like Tom Cuddy and Sinead McCoy stress the importance of conscientious flushing habits to prevent pollution.
