Bacardi's #NoStraws Initiative Saves Nearly 1M Plastic Straws Per Year from Polluting Our Oceans

Oct 19, 2016 11:05 AM ET

Join creatures of the sea in thanking Bacardi for its No Straws pledge to remove straws from cocktails at company events. Six months into the initiative, Bacardi has already removed more than one million straws from its cocktails.

As straws and stirrers are among the most collected pieces of trash in our oceans, coupled with the 10 liters of water used to produce one bottle of a premium spirit, Bacardi knows water is a critical resource for all its brands and local communities.

Help protect our sea friends and save straws from polluting our oceans by sharing their #NoStraws animation and GIFs… and adding “no straw, please!” to your next cocktail order.
