Sign the petition: Demand Starbucks stop breaking their climate pledge

In 2019, Starbucks joined other big international companies in promising to cut global warming pollution from all its operations by 50% by 2030. Long term, Starbucks says it wants to become “resource-positive, storing more carbon than we emit, replenishing more freshwater than we use, and eliminating waste.”

But Starbucks’ big climate promise is a lie: since promising to cut emissions, Starbucks has actually emitted MORE global warming pollution, year after year, every year, even when the pandemic forced them to close stores and reduce operations.

Starbucks is failing our planet and feeding us with empty promises. They’re running out of time to turn their operations around in order to hit their promised goals. At the same time they’re breaking their promise on climate change, Starbucks has launched a massive union busting campaign, firing more than 125 union leaders across the country. The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has issued 31 official Complaints that include over 800 allegations of employer misconduct.

It’s time to hold Starbucks accountable. Demand Starbucks stop greenwashing and union-busting immediately.

Sign the petition: Demand Starbucks step it up NOW and take action to curb their dangerous greenhouse gas emissions.
