Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to express my concern regarding a recent article in The Times, which highlighted that certain well-known coffee chains are reluctant to use recyclable paper mugs. Instead, they continue to prioritize single-use plastic cups for cost-cutting purposes.

This practice has serious environmental implications. Plastic cups take hundreds of years to degrade and are extremely costly to recycle. When left in the environment, they often end up polluting soil and water bodies, causing long-term damage to ecosystems. In contrast, paper cups are not only recyclable but can also be upcycled to generate economic value.

I strongly urge you to raise public awareness about this issue by publishing an article in your newspaper. Highlighting the environmental impact of such unsustainable practices can help put pressure on these companies to act more responsibly. Encouraging the use of recyclable alternatives is a step toward protecting our planet.

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I welcome your support and am happy to be contacted at jeel1112@gmail.com for any further discussion.

Yours faithfully,

Jeel Champaneria
