The introduction and rollout of the straw-les lid in MENA reduces the need for a straw altogether. By doing so, our objective is to reduce the consumption of straws usage from iced drinks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe believe in giving back to communities we operate in, and through the straw-less lid campaign in MENA, we aim to work with our customers and partners to showcase the value of collaboration and take care of our planet. Our long-standing history of innovation within Starbucks, partnership across the industry, and changing consumer behavior remain fundamental to our purpose and organization. We look forward to the launch of this new environmental initiative and making it a success.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This initiative reflects Starbucks \u2019 global multi-decade aspiration to become a resource-positive company by 2030, giving more than it takes \u2013 one that stores more carbon than it emits and provides more clean freshwater than it uses, reduces waste. Starbucks also aims to positively impact customers and its environmental footprint through a series of actions, including shifting away from single-use plastic, investing in innovative and regenerative agricultural practices, and developing eco-friendly stores. The straw-less lid launch is a major step in Starbucks\u2019 journey towards sustainability, and the company aims to eliminate plastic straws from all its stores across MENA by the end of the year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 16 December 2020):&nbsp;Starbucks announced the launch of the straw-less lid across all its markets in the MENA region.
