732K disposable coffee cups
equivalent CO₂ offset by our 80.52 tonnes captured
How we calculated this
Calculation methodology
This calculation considers the carbon footprint of a disposable coffee cup only, excluding the coffee itself. Each disposable cup produces 0.11 kg of CO₂ emissions.
80,520 kg ÷ 0.11 kg = 732,000 disposable coffee cups
Our forest captured: 80.52 tonnes CO₂
Emissions per disposable coffee cup: 0.11 kg CO₂
