Bistro Drink Discounts
Save money at the Bistro, and be environmentally responsible all at once:
Using a reusable drink container is sustainable because it saves money over time, keeps plastic out of landfills
and oceans, and preserves the water resources of communities around the world which are currently being exploited to create bottled water.
The ASHCC student sustainability committee meets every Thursday at 2pm on the third floor of building 8 (the student union).
You can learn more and even take action.
Every time you fill a canteen you are eliminating the need for a single use plastic bottle.
Fill this canteen a thousand times, and you eliminate the need for a thousand plastic bottles. See how that works? Also, using a reusable coffee mug can
pay for itself in just one quarter when used at the Bistro (Building 8, second floor) with the $0.10 discount they offer for bringing in your mug; a reusable
water bottle can pay for itself in a week!
This is what happens with almost all of those old throwaway plastic bottles:
