"Starbucks Unveils Redesigned Plastic Cups"

Starbucks has unveiled a new environmentally friendly redesign for its plastic cups, reducing plastic usage by up to 20% and aiming to save over 13.5 million pounds of plastic annually. The company plans to roll out the new cups in the US and Canada by spring 2025, with design tweaks for accessibility and efficiency. While these efforts align with Starbucks' sustainability goals, some critics argue that more focus should be placed on developing reusable and returnable on-the-go cups to address the plastic crisis.
