Those bubble teas come in a plastic cup with a plastic lid and then they give you a plastic bag too! This will be a big change for a lot of vendors.

Well since January 1st, they cannot give you a plastic bag for free anymore. That's already a push in the good direction!

They should switch to a paper bag which is biodegradeable.

There are biodegradable[1] non traditional-plastic bags too. Might be more expensive in the beginning.
