Little has changed :( I emailed Starbucks the following message: "Hey Starbucks, with all these drinks in plastic cups you’re selling, how’re you encouraging customers to recycle them? If you’re offering recycling bins, who’s cleaning them out before they go to the recycler? Any plastic material with food residues on or in it CANNOT be recycled, so who does it?" Their response: "we are decreasing the waste associated with our business, increasing recycling and promoting reusability. Please know that each year, an estimated 600 billion paper and plastic cups are distributed globally*, and though Starbucks cups only account for an estimated 1 percent of that total, we are invested in finding a more sustainable solution." Then they go on with a default answer about how they got rid of double cupping in the 90s, and phased out straws... blah blah blah. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. When are we going to hold these billion dollar corporations responsible?! They've been built on terrible ethics and irresponsible business practices, and will never change unless we boycott them or government regulations force them to change.

Paper coffee cups can be recycled but it's not 'cost-effective' is all. In the area I live in in New Zealand even our tetrapaks get recycled and they're a laminate of paper, plastic and aluminum. It's done in an advanced shreding-pulping machine that first separates the paper component in a slurry then the plastic and foil are separated. It's a fairly expensive process and not all local councils here will recycle tetrapaks. Don't confuse 'not economically viable' with 'can't recycle'. It's all about the money.

Old, old news. Hortons I remember condoned the use of the plastic lined paper cups long time ago (1983 ish), since it was better than the standard then of using styrofoam for take out. Huge public uproar back then, especially with the launch of the blue bin program. Now they cite the cost to separate the polyethylene plastic from the paper fibers as the main challenge in recycling it, which they simply outsource the responsibility now wherever possible. Starbucks, since there is paper cups on the market with plant based linings, perhaps *could* be using that and simply need to at least separate the lid off, thus "mixed recyclables". Three R's, reduce, reuse, recycle, so to Hortons credit at least, google "stewardship ontario tim hortons" and read up. Rest is really up to us as consumers. I sill prefer just fresh ground home brew, no k cups or per post plastic waste either.

Here's the deal with the paper cups, you can't recycle them but you can reuse them. They can be mixed into product like animal bedding. The problem with this is that it will probably never happen for post consumer product because of contamination. The only time cups get recycled is when they are post industrial meaning direct from the factory never used, like misprints or other defective cups. Infact a couple months ago we recently got an entire trailer full of coffee cups from a coffee chain that had old print on them (seasonal) we deboxed them, desleeve them and bale them. The will never be paper again.

After your show I visited my neighbourhood Tim Horton's in Montreal. I asked the manager if his store recycles the cups and he answered honestly--No. The reason is simple to understand: Customers put garbage in the recycling bins and it is just too time-consuming for the staff to sort out the cups. So the customers are to blame if Tim Horton's and Starbucks do not recycle their coffee cups.

Jackasses will throw anything in there, and the employees only have x hours to to get everything done, with literally no time for crap like sorting something that by all rights should already be sorted. What's that? Hire more people? Sure! However the cost will go up by $0.25; cue outraged consumers.

Obviously, that price difference needs to be greater in order to motivate people to avoid paper cups more often.

most of the comments missed the real deal. regardless of whether it goes in a "trash" can or a "recycle" box, that can, bottle, papercup, and metal thing DOES get picked out anyways. The people picking up your garbage do NOT take it straight to the dump. In most municpalities, waste companies do NOT take the dumpster contents directly to the landfill. the first stop for collected garbage is a sorting station where every single piece of trash goes down conveyors where machines pick out iron, people pick out metals and glass and random papers when it makes sense. They're picked out and recycled. there is only one difference between "blue box" recycling and throwing the items straight into the trash. Money from bluebox recycled materials go to the city while trash picked recycling goes to the garbage collection contractor. The other sad fact is that all this do-gooder recycling is wasted effort. There is no market for recycled glass. most cities have mountains of ground up glass somewhere. There is very little market for all the recycled paper because there's so much glue, ink, and other random crap in it. All the energy used to recycle and sort out metals is practically a waste of time in itself because the final product is inferior. The only way metal recycling works well is when it's more pure like cutting up a decommissioned ship, choppng up the beams from a building demolition, etc. All the equipement, fuel, man hours, and electricity used to collect and melt down your soup cans mixed in with other junk is nearly nonsense. In addition to that, each time you re-process a metal, you lose a certain percentage. The motivation to recycle is a good one but the end result isn't as nice as you're led to believe.

People focus too much on recycle. I would remind people out there the program is actually 3Rs. And recycling is the final resort. More should be promoted to reduce and reuse. Because that is something the people can control. So perhaps be less hypocritical and do what you should to reduce paper cups. Now im not saying eliminate the cups or that what the companies are doing is right. Not even close. But when you see soooooo many paper cups and so many people taking about recycle, obviously, they themselves haven't put in the effort to help either. Again ... too much focus on recycle, too little emphasis on the 1st 2 Rs.
