Starbucks - Publicly Interactive ESG Roadmap
Starbucks prides themselves as an ethical and sustainable global coffee chain. They have various initiatives such as Introducing a plant-based menu to reduce the impact of animal-based foods, investing in regenerative agriculture and reforestation and working with “responsible” stores around the world that are committed to reducing their amount of plastic use, energy consumption, and water waste. And in 2022 put forth their largest investment in wages and benefits. As well as benefits, they acknowledge the need for continuing training at all levels regarding human resource issues. There is much more to do given the size of the organization, customer base and influence on society.

Solutions
Qualified participants can submit solutions to collaborations for vote by communities. Earn Hero Points or money sponsorship rewards where applicable if your solution receives the most verified, qualifying votes
Roadmaps are a new way to solve challenges with community networks. You can host a collaboration to solve an issue and invite members of other WEN subnetworks or create your own. You can also join collaborations and earn hero points, rewards or in some cases sponsorship.
Participation rules

We’re committed to free and open engagement with the focus on solving a challenge or improving our world through community collaboration and consensus.

So obviously, please keep it civil, but above and beyond that—hosts and/or WeNetwork also reserve the right to remove any posts (and in extreme cases, WeNetwork members) that violate the following basic rules:

  • No marketing or spam. Come on, you know this!
  • No masquerading, by either subjects or participants
    Roadmaps and collaboration can be hosted by third parties, just as long as long as ownership is accurately identified.
    So, for instance, anyone can create a roadmap for JPMorgan as long as they are clear that they are not affiliated with JPMorgan, if that is the case. And no participant may falsely represent themselves as an affiliate, either.
    Users are required to disclose any material conflicts of interest in posts of any type.
  • Relevance to solution
    No “look there’s a squirrel” stuff—stay on topic, relevant, and constructive.
  • Age limit
    You must be 18 to use this site. If you are young, smart and engaged and really want to participate, please contact us for information about obtaining parental permission.
  • Not a complaint site
    Our platform is intended for crowdsourcing solutions. Any post attempting to disparage, defame or otherwise attack any business or individual is subject to removal.
    If you have a specific problem with any organization, including WeNetwork or any of its members, please email team@WeNetwork.app.
  • Qualifications to post a solution
    Anyone is welcome to post a civil, relevant and constructive comment. In most cases, though, posting a formal solution requires a minimum level of hero points. Solutions posted by anyone who doesn’t have enough hero points will be forwarded to the host for consideration.
By using this site you agree to abide by the rules set out by WeNetwork and any collaboration host.
