New Years Revolution

Happy New Years!

This year my New Years Resolution is not to use any disposable paper cups. This will achieve three things.
1)Reduce my (negative) enviornmental impact.
2)Eliminate calories & caffeine from impromptu mochas/lattes
3)Help me save money using "the latte effect". ("The latte effect" is a term used by popular financial advisors in the media to refer how cutting out small luxuries can afford you larger ones. For example: $5/day for lattes equals $1,825/year for a trip).

Don't get me wrong, I'm not giving up coffee, or even coffee out. Just that if I am going to enjoy a coffee out I will either sit down and really enjoy it, or have to plan ahead and bring my own cup.

I think this will be pretty easy. I have managed so far!

Do you have a New Year's Resolution?
