Happy Earth Day at Starbucks!

April 22nd, 2009

Happy Earth Day!

Today is a good day like any other day to pay tribute to Mother Earth.  There are many ways to do it, actually. You may:

  • choose to walk to lower carbon release
  • cut grass instead of using the mower
  • refuse to have your purchases wrapped or bagged in plastic
  • start recycling
  • turn off lights, air-conditioners, electric fans, TV, radio when not in use
  • unplug idle electric gadgets
  • (a tall order, maybe) for manufacturing companies, perhaps  halt operations for one day or a couple of hours

The list could go on and on. Incidentally, Starbucks Philippines is celebrating Earth Day by encouraging their customers to bring their own Starbucks tumbler when they go order coffee. The invitation goes:

On Earth Day, make one cup matter.

One tumbler used in place of one disposable cup
can help reduce millions in paper and plastic consumption.

Join us in this cause and we’ll take Php40 off the price of your beverage when you use your tumbler at any Starbucks store in the Philippines on April 22 & 23.

Love Mother Earth today and always!

    Yeah, I wonder why they didn't think of that. At least none that I know or heard of. Hmm...
  • Happy Earth Day Meika! Hope that Jollibee, McDo and the rest of the fastfood chains can come up with the same idea.
