CBNU UNICOOP(University Cooperative kSociety) has been giving a discount of 200 won per purchase for all kinds of beverages in Mr.Coffee and Paris Baguette for customers who bring their own cups since April 8th. They started this event to create an eco-friendly green business and a green university.
An officer working in the CBNU UNICOOP said, ¡°We started this event with the purpose of an eco-friendly business. Students responded positively because beverages were discounted. So far, there haven¡¯t been many students who use their own cup but the number of students is increasing.¡±
In interviews with CBNU students, students who knew about this event said ¡®I like the event¡¯, but most students didn¡¯t know about the event. However, the students who didn¡¯t know about the event said the event is really good when they heard the explanation about the event.
It seems that CBNU UNICOOP needs to publicize this event more and promote students¡¯ participation.
