At The Waste(less) Cafe, we can see how much waste builds over time. In cleverly repurposing paper and plastic cups, the café itself is filled to the brim with waste – it’s all part of the café itself and the mini interactive exhibits. While this pop-up café has already made its rounds at Paya Lebar, it will also be making an appearance at the Singapore Expo (March 4 to 5, 12-7pm) and Northpoint (March 11 to 12, 12-7pm).
The used cups you see are repurposed from The Waste Cafe, a social experiment conducted on January 28. Through this, we saw how much waste accumulated in just one afternoon – all from the seemingly innocent act of enjoying a cup of joe without bringing any reusables. We can only imagine how much more when other types of disposables and food wastage from our daily lives are added into the mix. No doubt it was an eye-opening experience, bringing to light the staggering amount of waste that naturally builds up in Singapore.
