星巴克荣获回收内容杯
全国回收联盟（NRC）宣布将于明年1月份向星巴克咖啡公司颁发其第八届年度“回收工程”奖。奖项荣誉组织代表了回收，保护环境的领导，以及全国回收联盟的使命的履行。
“我们相信健康的环境影响所有人，而且企业负责任地负责任地行事，”星巴克总裁兼首席执行官Jim Donald说。“我们[WILL]继续尽量减少我们的供应链运营的每一层环境足迹，从咖啡豆到咖啡杯。”
在创新的研究和测试中超过八年的结果，预计2006年初星巴克回收的内容杯预计将降低公司对树纤维的依赖，每年超过500万英镑。
发展回收内容杯只是公司的环境举措之一。一个主要的参与者可持续包装联盟，Starbucks为客户提供10美分的折扣，用于使用可重复使用的通勤杯，为实践废物预防的客户产生强大的忠诚基础。2004年，客户使用通勤杯1510万次，避免655,000磅的纸浪费。
星巴克还鼓励客户使用咖啡场，该咖啡厂占其商店创造的37％的废物流，通过为您的花园计划提供免费五镑的二手咖啡渣来制定土壤修正案。
“Starbucks has worked with its suppliers and customers since the company’s founding to implement a sustainability program that runs the gamut from waste prevention, recycling, and composting, to socially responsible buying guidelines for coffee and the implementation of measures aimed at reducing the company’s impact on global climate change,” says Kate Krebs, NRC executive director. “Most recently, Starbucks has shown incredible perseverance and leadership in working with its suppliers, Solo Cup Company, Mead-Westvaco and Mississippi River Corporation, to develop a paper coffee cup that contains 10% post-consumer recycled paper - a first for this industry. Now that Starbucks has successfully navigated the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval process, other companies can benefit from the same technology,” says Krebs.
