      Imagine all the oils and chemicals on that coffee cup lid from it's time going through the factory from the machines.
      Now also imagine every single one of those lids that just exited that factory will end up straight into a landfill, and again, in the name of convenience for someone to drink a single coffee in less than a few hours.

      I'm pretty sure it was TED because there's a bunch of things about this video that are exactly like the previous one we're thinking of (i.e., exact words and phrases), so it's not just another video about the same thing on a different channel.

  • @Phoenix-pm2iw
    @Phoenix-pm2iw 4 года назад

    Which lid spills the least when open? Back in the day before we all started to use travel mugs I found a trick with the supposedly primitive lid at 1:55. If you remove the lid and just push the peel back part into the cup instead, it allows you to drink without splashing coming out when moving. Even while driving it works well, but not prefectly. The traveler's lid could create quite a squirt in the same driving situation. I was surprised that an expert on coffee cups didn't know about this trick. Try it yourself people.

    • @spyder629
      @spyder629 4 года назад

      if coffee pours out from the opening it's sealed from air. an increase in underpressure may result in bubbles forming which disturbes the coffee drinking experience. thus, a pressure equalizing hole.
