Is the solution to a greener planet a purple cup? Possibly.    Habit Burger & Grill, Taco Bell and KFC recently participated in the United States’ first city-wide reusable cup program , which was led by the NextGen Consortium, a collaboration managed by the Center for the Circular Economy at Closed Loop Partners. Our team members swapped their signature cups for bright purple ones. After using their cups, customers could place them in bright purple receptacle bins around town.    The "purple craze" was a success, proving that if you make sustainability easy, customers will try something new.
