We see a lot of paper cups during the day for tea/ coffee in the site. We would like to completely remove the usage of paper cups and replace it with ceramic mugs either provided by HP or the employees bring their own reusable mug. This will help us in reducing the burden on the environment as well as the ill effects of paper cups for employees
