BECOMING RESOURCE POSITIVE

We are committed to becoming resource positive – to give more than we take from the planet. We will store more carbon than we emit, eliminate waste and conserve and replenish more freshwater than we use.

2030 COMMITMENTS

Starbucks set a multi-decade commitment to reduce our carbon, our water and our waste footprints by half by 2030.

AREAS OF FOCUS

We’re driving innovation at scale to achieve our 2030 targets through these five focus areas:
