Starbucks' sippy cup-style lids are here to stay
The company began to phase out straws and the old iced lids in 2019.
\"Recyclable, strawless lids for customers across the U.S. and Canada is another step in our journey to reduce our environmental footprint,\" Michael Kobori, chief sustainability officer at Starbucks, said in a statement.
Blended drinks like Frappuccinos and other beverages with whipped cream will continue to have a domed lid made from recyclable plastic and may be accompanied by a straw, except where prohibited by local law. Straws will also remain available in stores for customers upon request.
The company is one step closer toward its 2030 target of a 50% reduction in waste sent to landfills, Kobori added.
\"The long-standing history of innovation within Starbucks, partnership across the industry and changing consumer behavior remain fundamental to our purpose and our prosperity as an organization,\" he said.
