    I believe that there are probably smarter ways to separate the lid from the cup but your idea is quite nice. It would still be a challenge to make people use it and to return their cup+lid.

    What an extraordinary idea. But it doesn´t solve the paper cup problem, does it?

    Simple, elegant solution. I like it. Perhaps could be simplified even further? I like where it's headed.

    This is an interesting concept. Similar to http://www.jovoto.com/contests/drink-sustainably/ideas/4998

    Nice idea, but if eco-friendly materials were used to make the cups and lids, there would be no need to separate them. Paper cups which are lined with bioplastic are compostable, and so are lids made of cornstarch. Then there's no need to separate anything at all, as the whole lot goes in the same bin together with a half drunk coffee, muffin crumbs and coffee grains, and it can all go to be composted. In 6-12 weeks, the end products are compost, topsoil or biogas (source of renewable energy).
