Air Canada has removed 35 million plastic stir sticks from its aircrafts – enough enough if laid end-to-end to join Halifax and Vancouver.
Air Canada’s stir stick replacement will be made of bamboo and certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, which assures products come from responsible sources so that forests remain thriving environments for generations to come.
What’s more, starting this fall, we will be removing the outer plastic bags from approximately 1.8 million Business Class and Premium Economy Class amenity kits, bringing the total number of single-use plastic items removed from our flights to 36.8 million.
