“Some just expect them not to take stolen valor in it.”
When things are asked or presented from the company, their reasoning is mentioned as environmental.
We as consumers are “lied to” all the time, or at least subjected to spin that we have little trouble seeing beyond. I mentioned these signs before because they’re a familiar sight to us all:
I still don’t fully understand, but you seem to be saying that Disney could have just removed straws without offering any reason for their decision. If that it what you’re saying, I agree with you, though such an approach would have provoked a flurry of questions from those wondering why their straws had been taken away.

We all know the impassioned “SAVE OUR PLANET” is a mere front for “Save our costs”, but what does it matter when the end result is indeed beneficial to the environment?

I will take this one. As an ardent environmentalist, I hate crap like this because
Fair point.
I don’t doubt this has happened, but when was it presented as being beneficial to the environment?
Planters for one tried to spin a glass to plastic conversion as pro-environment because the plastic was lighter and used less fuel to transport. But the glass was both recycled and recyclable while the plastic was virgin and effectively non-recycleable, like nearly all plastics people are told they can recycle.
