THERE IS AN interesting initiative happening in Mayo where the cost of reusable coffee/tea mugs is being subsidised by the County Council.

The Connaught Telegraph reported recently that the idea aims to cut down on the amount of rubbish generated by single-use disposable cups.

Do you own one of those reusable mugs?

Poll Results:

Yes, and I use it regularly (4496)

Yes, but don't use often (2956)

No, and I buy takeaway beverages (1826)

No, but I don't buy takeaways (1763)
