"Starbucks Embraces Eco-Friendly Shift, Allowing Personal Reusable Cups for All Orders Amid Worker Concerns"
Starbucks has announced that customers can now use their own reusable cups for mobile and drive-thru orders in the U.S. and Canada, as part of their sustainability efforts. This extends their existing policy of accepting personal cups for in-store orders. Customers using reusable cups will receive a 10-cent discount and, if they are Starbucks Rewards members in the U.S., an additional 25 bonus stars. The initiative includes new technology for measuring beverages and a contactless vessel for cup handling. Starbucks also launched its new winter menu, featuring both new items and returning favorites.
