This may be a stupid idea, but to my knowledge metals is are some of the best materials when it comes to being easily recyclable.

Ignoring the cost and reusability, wouldn’t recyclable disposable cups made of metal be a better deal than the largely incinerated plastic cups?

I think they would need a deposit system if your expect to get anything back on them?

Where i live we have 10 cent deposits for retuning all recycled bottles and cans
