Foam for coffee cups here often, trees are a renewable resource plastic and foam are the problem way more then paper. Tree cutting support wildlife clear cuts create maximum growth in area feeding wildlife for years to come.

I'm very pro paper. I'm one of the few that still asks for my groceries to be bagged in paper.

Or vision. Once they spray the vision on the clearcuts nothing will live there-it is a dead landscape for at least 50 to 60 years until the conifer monoculture can support any wildlife. Then they cut it again at 80.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

the wife has cloth grocery bags folds them up when we put away groceries and brings them to the store each week and I have had the same coffee cup for 6 or 7 years.
reducing consumption just isn't popular with very many , we could learn a lot and did from our Depression era family.

I may heat with wood but I seldom need to cut any healthy trees with all the EAB and storm damage around.

I don't really care what the moonbats think... But I use the same travel mug every day. Too cheap to shell out cash all the time for disposable cups.

I have a 107 acre farm inside city limits of 10k population. Far and away plastic sacks and plastic bottles are THE trash to be found. Landlord gets on me to keep field edges mowed...NOPE! The weeds are renewable annual trash fence.

I too heat with wood. Not all cases are the same but..... I only cut living trees, to primarily thin for more growth on remaining trees, secondarily it yeilds more growth of plants on forest floor which is better for wildlife and third because cutting dead trees is bad for wildlife.

Antis cannot see past the end of their nose they want to ban everything that will not have a impact on their lives with no thought of the final outcomes.

Paper is renewable, recyclable (although often this is a feel good measure, it takes less resources and less money to make new paper, paperback books doubled in price under Clinton because he signed a law requiring them to be made out of at least 50% recycled paper) and decomposable. Personally I don't like drinking out of paper or foam, but then I make my own coffee and carry it in a thermos anyways, they don't have coffee shops where I spend my time.
I do always use paper bags rather than plastic at the grocery store. You bring your own paper bags, or do grocery stores in Idaho still offer them? I've not seen a grocery store on the east coast offer paper bags in over 20 years. I work at a farm stand and we've been trying to use up 5000 paper bags the owners used to cover tomatoes with during a frost this spring. 100% of the customers look at the paper bags, then ask for plastic. I tell them paper is all we have. 80% of them forego the bag and make 2-3 trips to the car, grumbling about us not having plastic, rather than using a paper one. I don't get it.
