Eco-conscious Starbucks Card – in more ways than one!
March 03, 2010
by David Lieske
Hello! We've seen quite a few suggestions to increase our use of recycled content in the production of Starbucks Cards. The spirit of this idea marries well with our Starbucks™ Shared Planet™ goal to find innovative ways to decrease our environmental footprint. We focused on understanding the journey our Cards make - from raw material sourcing to end of usable life - so that we can make sound decisions and reduce our environmental footprint. For every product we offer, we want to provide something you’ll love, while also staying consistent with our values as a company. This is certainly true for the Starbucks Card, which is why we were so excited to work with Conservation … more »
Starbucks and Foursquare

We’re excited to announce a collaboration with the social networking site, Foursquare. I’ve been playing with Foursquare for about a year now, and until recently, I was the mayor of the Starbucks Support Center (Starbucks headquarters). I have a plan to earn that back, and it may or may not involve working seven days a week ☺. Now you can earn the " Barista Badge " by checking into five different Starbucks. The application is available for most smart phones like the iPhone, Android devices and Blackberry. One other item that we will include is " Tips " about different Starbucks stores. We’re looking for info about your store that is unique, different and … more »
My Starbucks Idea Tasting Club

by sbx_bean
Starting March 9, Starbucks will be featuring a different Bold coffee each week (while continuing to serve Pike Place Roast every day). Many brewed coffee customers already know that we rotate our calendar of Bolds on a weekly basis, but we have some exciting new additions, and these coffees will be front and center in our stores for eight weeks. We invite you to join us for a tasting tour. Each week go into a store and try the featured Bold coffee. Then visit us at My Starbucks Idea (MSI) and share your tasting notes. On Tuesdays we’ll highlight the featured coffee here on the Ideas in Action blog. Please add your tasting notes in the comment stream. During the week of March 9th, stores … more »
MSI Coffee Tasting Club Week #4 – Komodo Dragon Blend®
March 30, 2010
by bee_dub
Crack open a bag of Komodo Dragon Blend® and one thing will stand out immediately – a strong aroma that smells a little like a garden or baseball field after a fresh rain. This earthy characteristic is always my first clue that I’m about to enjoy an Asia/Pacific coffee. It’s a dominating scent that distinguishes the region’s coffees quite well. While the press steeps and as I pour my glass, I let my nose take it in. There’s no denying that this is a big, bold blend. My mouth begins to water in anticipation. Smell is only the first of four steps in the coffee tasting experience, so I dive right into the next – slurp . Proud of a noisy effort that would make … more »

Hi everyone, It is Joelle from the Community Investments team and I’m excited to tell you more about our global Starbucks Shared Planet Youth Action Grants and a cool, new opportunity our friends at HP have made possible.

All three of the organizations do amazing … more »
