SBUX Starbucks accused of water wastage

This makes me furious!

I steer clear anyway - have you seen Black Gold? Absolutely shocking how the coffee farmers were being treated!

[Green Beginnings]

I try and avoid chains as much as possible. Locally owned tea shops are more my cuppa!!!!!!
You get genuine customer care too as they truly want you to return.
Definitely enquire about Fair Trade products. the more people that ask, the more likely they are to stock it.

I saw this and couldnt beleive it tbh, why would it be policy to have it running all day long, makes no sense at all to me.

[slazanger]

The amount of starbucks I see is insane, are we all really that addicted to caffine ?

[Louis]

I agree, it was a total disgrace. I have never bought a coffee there or in any other chain and will never do so. It is such a fashion item now.

I don't buy from any of the chains either. Fair Trade coffee does me fine!
