The issue of disposable paper cups has been in the news in England a lot recently. Around 2.5 billion of them are thrown away every year that's about seven million cups every day. Journalists have said that some coffee chains lie about how many paper cups they recycle. Thejournalists say the companies do not recycle as many cups as they say they do. This meanscustomers wrongly believe that a coffee shop is environmentally friendly. A recycling service inthe UK said that fewer than one in 400 paper cups at coffee shop chains are recycled. Onecoffee drinker said she would now bring her own cup. She said: "I am disappointed that cafesrecycle so little. I thought they were more responsible."

近日，英格兰媒体曾多次报道一次性纸杯问题。每年废弃纸杯约25亿。约每天700万个。据记者报道，许多咖啡连锁在再利用上采取欺骗手段。回收数量并没有达到他们所说的要求。误导顾客，让顾客认为纸杯环保。英国某回收组织表示，纸杯回收率不到四百分之一。某顾客称将自带咖啡杯。她表示：“我对咖啡杯的循环利用率感到失望。我原以他们的责任更重。”
