As part of the #ReduceSingleUseOctober campaign, each day in October we will be featuring a business who is doing their part to reduce their use this October!

At NovelTea Bookstore Cafe we are launching our new 'Travel Mug Library!' We are asking our customers to bring us a few of the many travel mugs that so many of us have stored in our cupboards. Our NovelTea team will then inspect, wash & sanitize them, and then the various travel mugs will be available for our customers to borrow as needed, and hopefully return - so that each mug can be used again and again!

This new initiative is in addition to:
- Dine-in option with washable cups, plates and cutlery.
- 5% discount for bringing your own reusable travel mug with you.
- encouraging customers to bring their own reusable take-out containers.
- Offering compostable cutlery, take-out containers and trays.
- Offering a great selection of reusable straws, and cups for purchase.

Thanks NovelTea Bookstore Cafe for reducing single use!!

At Divert NS we already have a disposable coffee-cup ban, but for October we have also implemented a fast-food wrapper ban as well as a ban on "grab-and-go" containers (like grocery store salads). Along with this we have a $0.25 fee for failure to comply which goes to our social fund.

Thanks Divert NS for reducing single use!!

At Legge Health Clinic Inc. we have washable fabric hand towels available to use instead of the disposable paper towel. We email receipts rather than printing them, we use linens for treatment tables instead of paper, and we use reusable water bottles and coffee mugs!
