Bacardi is taking a brave stance against emojis depicting straws and single-use plastic cups.

The Federalist: First they came for our gun emojis. Now they’re coming for our keyboard straws.

Bacardi announced their new “The Future Doesn’t Suck” campaign on Friday, taking a brave stance against emojis depicting straws and single-use plastic cups. The drink company teamed up with ocean activist organization Lonely Whale to announce they are dedicated to eliminating all plastic straws, even the digital ones.

“We think if humans are going to get used to the idea of using less plastic straws, they should use less emoji straws, too,” the company said in a statement.
