Every year, millions of plastic cups are used across airlines and then dumped into the growing pile of plastic that lies in the world.
New Zealand airline Air NZ knew that they had to do something about it, as they serve 8 million cups of coffee on their planes annually.
So, they have just introduced edible coffee cups in their lounges and all their flights as a test. Made in partnership with the NZ company Twiice, these plant-based edible cups are vanilla flavoured and can withstand the heat from the coffee without melting.
Some time back, they had already started serving #coffee in biodegradable cups, but this is definitely a step further. Having edible cups on board will also reduce the weight that they carry and further help in reducing the greenhouse gas that planes release. It is a great step forward towards a #sustainable planet.
