Meeting 4, Committee Member 4, Chairperson (C4)
Present:
Discussion ensued on the relative value of ceramic vs. glass mugs, with Member 2 advocating for ceramic, citing its "warmth and feel." C4 noted that while ceramic mugs are indeed cozy, they are also prone to chipping and require more frequent replacement, thus increasing overall costs.
Member 1 countered with data on the environmental benefits of ceramic production, pointing out that ceramic factories emit fewer CO2 emissions during manufacturing than glass factories. C4 countered that this was irrelevant, as the subcommittee was discussing mugs, not climate change.
1. Research alternatives to ceramic and glass mugs, including but not limited to:
2. Invite a representative from "Brew-tality" to present on the merits of $50 mugs.
3. C4 will draft a letter to the Committee on Pointless Committees, advocating for increased funding for mug research and development.
C4 concluded the meeting by reminding members that the subcommittee is committed to finding the perfect, yet utterly unnecessary, mug.
