This excludes the even larger quantity of plastic lids used for cold drinks.\nThe poll has revealed that, at 73%, the number of those wanting to ban single-use lids is approximately the same as those who support a ban on single-use plastic straws (73%) and cutlery (71%).
Only 8% disagree with a ban on plastic lids.\nThe poll results have caused environmental campaigners to amp up calls for a single-use plastic lid ban.\nTommy McLoughlin, Founder and CEO of ButterflyCup, said:"These results have lifted the lid on the coffee cup and lid waste crisis.\n"They show that delays in banning single-use plastic lids is not caused by a lack of public support.
The Government must listen to the public and curb the use of single-use plastic lids in the same way it has done on similar plastic products like straws, stirrers, cutlery and plates - all of which are being banned.\nIn December, ButterflyCup launched the UK\'s first plastic-free lidless disposable coffee cup.\n'
