    But I think the idea been banded about to tax coffee cups is a really good idea.

    Places like Starbucks amd Costa should start using cups that are recyclable

    They're a good idea if Starbucks and Costa absorb the cost. Not a good idea if they just pass it onto us

    I imagine neither of those scenarios would happen. They will move to biodegradable cups

    lets use an analogy here....

    petrol is taxed and the cost is passed to the consumer

    there's your answer if they tax coffee cups.
