Starbucks Korea vows to go greener, plastic-free

기사 요약: 국내 1위 커피 전문점 스타벅스는 플라스틱 빨대 퇴출 계획을 밝혔다. 오는 9월까지 일부 매장에서 종이 빨대를 시범 도입한 뒤 이르면 올해 안에 전국 1180개 매장에서 플라스틱 빨대를 완전히 사용하지 않겠다는 것이다. 얼음을 넣은 아이스 음료의 경우 빨대 없이 마실 수 있는 컵 뚜껑을 도입할 방침이다.



[1] Acting in tandem with the global coffee giant’s headquarters, Starbucks Korea announced Tuesday that it will kick off the “Greener Starbucks” campaign to go plastic-free at all of its stores nationwide.

In addition, plastic coffee stirrers and wrapping vinyl for packing merchandise will be substituted with biodegradable materials.
