Vienna Tomkalski 11/14/2024 7:30 AMMy ecochallenge is actually a lot harder than I thought. I didn't realize how often I use paper cups for things, both on and off campus. Last weekend I tried going to a coffee shop that I know serves their drinks in ceramic mugs (if you say 'for here' when they ask), but they were closed on Sundays, so I ended up going to a different coffee shop but I forgot to bring my own mug. And then on campus, I asked at Badger Street Subs and they let me use my own cup, but they seemed kind of reluctant so I'm not sure if they'll let me do it again. So all in all, a lot more difficult than I expected.-
