New Mug Library at Tussock

An exciting new initiative between MAWSA and Massey staff has resulted in a mug library for the Welly’s campus café, Tussock. The premise of the library is simple: borrow a mug instead of using the single-use coffee cups that Tussock provides. Once done, simply wash thoroughly and place back on the shelf. Voilà! 

Fiona Lu, MAWSA’s Sustainability and Wellbeing Officer, helped lead the project with staff. She says, “It should’ve been something that happen years ago to give students and staff more waste free options at Tussock. It’s a small step in the larger scheme of things but a step nonetheless in the right direction in terms of reducing waste.” 

Some universities, like Otago, have started charging $1 for use of their cup-libraries, so here’s hoping Massey remains communist and proud.
