Are you a
Starbucks fan? Do you visit Starbucks daily for a delicious coffee or latte?
Starbucks is claiming that their new cup sleeve will save 100K trees! The new “EarthSleeve”uses 34% less raw fiber and is made up of 85% post-consumer content!
The
Starbucks Coffee Company has also reported that the new EarthSleeve has been
deemed fully compostable by both ASTM and Cedar Grove requirements. In 2011,
Starbucks customers in the United States briefly used and tossed away about 3
billion hot drink cup sleeves! Although Starbucks does not encourage reusable
drink ware, this is their way of attempting to reduce waste.
