Starbucks announces coffee-specific environmental goals
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
n 2020 #starbucks committed to a resource-positive future, formalizing environmental goals to cut its carbon, water, and waste footprints by half.
As a progression against those goals, the company commits to Carbon Neutral #green Coffee and to conserve water usage in #green coffee processing by 50%, both by 2030.
Starbucks has a bold aspiration to be a resource positive company, to take less and give more to the planet in every aspect of its business – including coffee. #starbucks purchases coffee from more than 400,000 farmers in 30 countries around the world and is committed to a sustainable future for coffee.
To protect the resiliency of this supply chain, the people that make it possible, and the planet we all share, #starbucks set goals to achieve carbon neutral #green coffee and conserve water usage in #green coffee processing by 50% by 2030.
“As we celebrate 50 years of #starbucks, we are looking ahead at ways we can reimagine the future and continue to inspire and nurture the human spirit,” said Michelle Burns, svp of Global Coffee, Tea and Cocoa at #starbucks. “For farmers and their communities, we know it is critical we work together to address the challenges they face associated with climate change which are making it increasingly difficult to grow high-quality coffee. By reducing carbon emissions and conserving water, we can help farmers be more productive while we are also contributing to a better planet and bringing coffee to customers in a sustainable way.”
Accelerating Sustainable Coffee
From the beginning, #starbucks has been a leader in sourcing coffee responsibly.
These coffee-specific environmental goals are an extension of work underway with C.A.F.E. (coffee and farmer equity) Practices. Evidence shows that farmers participating in the program have higher productivity than the country averages. which has helped #starbucks create a long-term supply of high-quality coffee while positively impacting the lives of coffee farmers and their communities.
Now, in support of the company’s path to a Planet Positive future, #starbucks is focusing on its carbon and water footprints at Origin – or what #starbucks refers to as “the first ten feet” (farm to port).
With this focus on on-farm activities and land use change, #starbucks is addressing its largest source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in coffee before the rest of the coffee value chain (like transportation, roasting, or packaging).
“A strong model for #corporate climate leadership; #starbucks has developed clear and ambitious targets that prioritize sustainability from farmer to customer,” said Dr. M. Sanjayan, CEO, Conservation International. “Just as significantly, they are backing these commitments with immediate actions to reduce their footprint and invest in nature. I encourage other companies to follow a similar path. It’s good for business, good for people, and essential for our climate.”
