Sure it is! And here's a GREAT way to start your day off being green!
YOUR MORNING COFFEE:
1) Bring a mug;
2) Grab your cream or milk from the big container, not the little individual creamers;
3) Lose the stir stick, ask for a spoon; and most importantly,
4) Don't use the drive-in window. a recent study found that in Edmonton alone, drivers spend a whopping 5,000 hours idling in drive-thrus while waiting for their double-doubles and Boston Cremes, choking out about 23.5 tonnes of greenhouse gases. Per day.

Re: It Ain't Easy Being Green
#4 is a biggie...park your damn car and get out and walk inside. You'll burn a few calories, save gas, and most importantly, you won't be idling in line for 10 minutes while the server is making coffee and counting change. Good tips!
