Everyone has seen a similar cup at an outdoor picnic.

This cup is among the worst for the environment. Plastics, in general, take about 1,000 years to decompose, if at all. This cup, for all intents and purposes, can not be recycled.

"Why are red solo cups not recyclable?

It's a common misconception that red plastic cups can be recycled. Many people are (understandably) misled by the three-arrow triangle with a #6 on the bottom of these cups. Red party cups are made from polystyrene which is too dangerous and economically inefficient to recycle."

The challenge: 1) do not purchase these cups for your next party. 2) do not choose to use this or a similar solo cup. 3) Share this post.

Stop using, single use plastic items, especially those that can not be recycled!

Devan Horton is a Northern Kentucky artist who creates paintings that call attention to the ways in which humans have corrupted nature. Since receiving her BFA in Painting from Northern Kentucky University, Devan has crafted and promoted her artistic career by exhibiting in local and national galleries, including Manifest Gallery, Buckham Gallery, and Caza Sykes Gallery. Most recently, she held a solo exhibition of her series, "Penchant", at Studio Kroner in Cincinnati, an exhibition and fundraising event called “Trash Talk” which benefited three local sustainability organizations; Keep Cincinnati Beautiful, Green Umbrella, and the Cincinnati Recycle and Reuse Hub. In 2021 she completed a residency program through Friends of Black Rock, a conservation organization in the Black Rock Desert. In March of 2022, Devan was a featured panelist in The Clifton Cultural Arts Center's Sunset Salon: Art as Activism. Activism, collectiveness, and a love of the natural world have remained themes in Devan's work since college. Recently, she has launched a series of experiments with sustainable, non-toxic paints, pigments, and regenerative canvas materials.
