If the idea of a party brings these classic cups to mind, you’re not alone.

Over time they have become synonymous with celebrations. Whether through films or the popularity of our favorite drinking games (beer pong, flip cup, etc.), they’re ingrained in our culture.

As we become more conscious of our impact on the environment, it becomes more clear that these cups aren’t going to cut it anymore.

That single-use life isn’t going to cut it anymore.

So with everyone’s favorite red-solo-cup-holiday looming, we thought we’d remind you of a few ways you can engage in SRP (Socially Responsible Partying) this 4th of July.

SRP Essentials: Bring Your Own

Keep your drank cold in this reusable “party cup” and watch as all the hot guys flock to ask “Hey beautiful! Where’d you get that awesome cup?”

Slide these reusable bamboo utensils into your pocket and pull them out when it’s time to feast. Enjoy getting showered in compliments from all the lovely ladies at the shindig.

When given the option, go for the paper plate. It’s all about that “biodegradable life.” Bonus points for a covert operation into the kitchen to seek out a non-single-use plate.

Save cash money with uberPOOL. And relish in your fortune with fellow Americans en route to the celebration.
