Starbucks, the world’s largest coffeehouse chain, has just released a new range of eco-friendly cups made from 100% recycled materials. The new cups are part of a sustainable collection that includes three hot tumblers, a sustainable white mug, and a recycled glass cold cup with a white lid and straw. Each item in the collection has a green sticker on the front that says “100% recycled.”
The highlight of the collection is the recycled glass cold cup with a white lid and straw, which has become incredibly popular online. The cups are part of Starbucks’ core collection of cups that are available for a long period of time and aren’t based on a specific occasion. The new sustainable cups are expected to be on sale for many months and are available at stores across the US now.
In addition to the eco-friendly cups, Starbucks has also announced nine new spring cups with pops of green, blue, pink, yellow, purple, and orange. The new range includes the Checkered Cold Cup, Pink & Orange Gradient Tumbler, Green & Pink Grid Cold Cup, and Bluebell Soft Touch Cold Cup. There are also hot drink options such as the Citrus Mug, Pastel Ombre Tumbler, Green Stainless Steel Tumbler, and Petunia Tumbler.
All of the cups in the spring range are priced between $14.95 and $24.95, making them an affordable way to brighten up your day. Additionally, Starbucks has a history of releasing merchandise that’s themed around certain times of the year, so it’s exciting to see the company focusing on sustainability instead.
It’s fantastic to see a company like Starbucks taking steps toward sustainability. Single-use plastic cups are a major contributor to plastic waste, and Starbucks’ new eco-friendly cups are a step in the right direction. However, as consumers, we can do more to reduce our impact on the environment. One way to do this is by bringing our reusable cups to coffee shops. Many coffee shops, including Starbucks, offer discounts to customers who bring their reusable cups.
Starbucks’ new eco-friendly cups are a great example of how companies can take steps toward sustainability. By using 100% recycled materials, the coffee chain is reducing its impact on the environment. As consumers, we can also do our part by bringing our reusable cups to coffee shops and reducing our use of single-use plastic. Together, we can make a positive impact on the environment and create a more sustainable future for all.
