Environmental Stewardship
We share our customers' commitment to the environment
And we believe in the importance of caring for our planet and working with and encouraging others to do the same. As a company that relies on an agricultural product, it makes good business sense. And as people living in the world, it is simply the right thing to do.
Recycling
It’s a big challenge and we’re making big progress. We’re trying to develop more environmentally friendly cups and are working hard to expand our recycling program in an effort to reduce the waste we create.
Energy
We are proud of the work we have done to be more energy efficient and we’re committed to further minimizing our energy consumption and using renewable sources of energy to lower our impact on the planet.
Water
We all have to work carefully with one of our most valuable natural resources and we’re evaluating our store design, equipment and operations to identify ways to continue to reduce the amount of water we use.
Green Building
We’re making our stores as green as we can by using responsible building materials and energy efficient designs to reduce our environmental footprint.
Climate Change
Climate change poses a serious threat to the world’s coffee-growing regions and we’re aggressively pursuing strategies to address this problem and help farmers mitigate the impact.
