ASM Global: Bring back reusable cups at Sheffield Arena
ASM Global need to bring back reusable cups to Sheffield Arena
Why is this important?
Over the last few years, Sheffield Arena had reusable cups for every event held there. Many people remember bringing back their reusable cup to the arena.
Now ASM Global have taken over the arena, they have taken away reusable cups and reverted the arena back to single-use cups. This will result in hundreds of thousands of single-use plastic cups used every year.
Microplastics are released into liquids in plastic cups, in addition single-use plastic is made by burning oil, a fossil fuel, which is contributing towards climate change and extreme weather, like floods, heatwaves and wildfires.
Many people loved the reusable cups at Sheffield Arena. They are a shining example of a circular economy, used, washed and reused again and again. Businesses across Sheffield must be doing their bit for the environment, to reduce single-use plastics.
