Starbucks has the ambitious goal of making 100 percent of its cups (one billion used each year) recyclable or reusable by 2015. We started documenting the coffee giant's quest for a better cup in a recent issue of Fast Company, but Starbucks has made some progress since then. The company announced this week that it finished a six-week pilot project demonstrating that Starbucks cups' liquid-proof interior coating isn't a roadblock to recycling.
The project, completed as part of a partnership with International Paper Company and Mississippi River Pulp, gathered up 6,000 pounds of old Starbucks cups from 170 storefronts in the Toronto area and shipped them off to the Mississippi River Pulp mill, where they were recycled into new cups.
There's a hitch, though: the Mississippi River Pulp mill is the only pulp mill in the country with the capacity to perform the recycling process that turns used Starbucks cups into high-quality fiber for new cups.

"What are you going to do about this damn cup?" A story of Starbucks and the limits of corporate sustainability.
"When I take people out here in the winter, sometimes we just lie down on it," says Susan Thoman. She's gesturing to a mound of rich black organic matter the length and height of a warehouse at the Cedar Grove composting plant, a sprawling complex an hour north of Seattle. Sealed under Gore-Tex fabric and "blimped" with fans, the giant piles reach a toasty internal temperature of 130 degrees thanks to beneficial bacteria. They steam in the foggy air, which is scented miraculously with bark mulch, not rot, like...

Could a simple chalkboard eliminate the use of disposable coffee cups? The creators of Karma Cup think so.
If you could earn free lattes by helping save the environment, why wouldn't you? That’s the philosophy behind Karma Cup, the winner of the Betacup Challenge announced today.
Betacup Challenge is an open design competition partly sponsored by Starbucks with a mission to reduce the waste from to-go paper coffee cups. Having beat out over 430 entries, Karma Cup will receive $10,000.
The Karma plan: A chalkboard at the coffee shop will chart each person who uses a reusable mug. The tenth person to order a drink with a reusable cup will receive his or her drink free. By turning a freebie program into a communal challenge, Karma Cup would create incentives for everyone to bring reusable mugs. (After all, the more people participate, the more free stuff is given away and the...

Starbucks is one of those rare food and beverage chains that embraces sustainability in both their products (Fair Trade coffee, for example) and in retail locations. The latter can be seen in Starbucks' newly completed Manhattan Soho pilot store, which is up for Leed certification in July.
The shop incorporates a laundry list of green features that increase its chances of getting Leed certified, including dual-flush toilets, low-flow faucets, water-based paints, and Led bulbs. In an interview with Tonic's Nadia Hosni, Jim Hanna, Starbucks' director of environmental affairs, said that Starbucks simply aimed to create the most sustainable store possible--leed certification was an afterthought. Still, the possibility of approval from the U.S. Green Building Council must have crossed Starbucks designers' minds at some point.
Starbucks' Soho shop doesn't skimp on design, either. The store attempts to shed the Starbucks corporate image with local and homey touches, including:
