Recently, I realized that my daily (takeout) coffee addiction is costing me around $35 a week. So I decided to start making my morning cup of joe at home—baby steps! But the benefits of my new mug habit don’t end with money-saving wins.

After all, if we’re ever going to make a dent in the 270 tons of plastic waste in the ocean, it seems like a no-brainer to drastically cut back on the paper and Styrofoam cups we’re sending to landfills. By upping your mug game, you’ll be more likely to enjoy your own coffee at home, waste-free. And making the earth a bit healthier? That’s going to make it taste that much better.
