Agreed. Too many products marketed to people who don’t need the convincing. If this were a coffee shop that used these for “in house” drinks I think it would be better. But people won’t be like “I need to care more for this planet, Im going to buy these for myself to remind me of that for $X”

“Does it make sense to create more waste to “raise awareness?””

Interesting, I’m always thinking of that when I see these type products.
In Australia we have these re-useable bags you can by from the grocery, the purpose of these, so we don’t use a disposable bag from the clerk.
They are made in such a way they look like soft natural fibers, green in colour and have a lame slogan like “save the world one bag at time”. But in actual fact they are made from polypropylene! Which you may know would take a significant time longer to break down than a traditional bag which takes 10 – 20 years. The ‘green bag’ system does work in theory, but when people keep buying then because they changed the colour, it kind of defeats the purpose of the whole idea (again, my hat goes off to china).
Just to add – four or five ‘green bags’ can replace 520 plastic bags a year.

So in this case of the ‘green bags’, yes I agree with your comment. But it appears to me that products like the degree cup, would be bought only by people who already care?
