Instead of the single-use paper or plastic cups that Gearhard would usually line up for the barista slinging espresso, he’s passing over shiny new reusable cups that bear the slogan “Sip, Return, Repeat”.

Each cup comes with a trackable QR code to help monitor results.
Headlines in one year: ”Amercan waterways flooded with reusable cups as Americans still throw away what should be reused."

What’s their difference to glass bottles? i.e. the ones Coca Cola uses?
