After a great workout from the gym, for some reason I want some coffee as I would walk by the coffee shop that was literally two stores away from my gym. I came across this one coffee shop called Think Coffee. The little sign was what grabbed my attention. It said “An estimated 4 billion Starbucks cups end up in landfills each year because they can’t be recycled or composed. All Think Coffee cups are compostable.” As soon as I saw the sign I was happy to know that I found a coffee shop that their cups are compostable. I knew I had go in and find out more about this coffee shop. I went in to order a latte with oat milk and as I paid for my cup of coffee I walked over to where everyone usually waits to pick up their coffee. Literally right In front of that area was this sign that says Social Project Coffee. What I found and what it said was, “Social Project Coffee is coffee that is sourced based on a direct relationship between purchaser and farmer/producer where: 1) the purchaser pays a premium price for coffee, 2) together, the purchaser and farmer/producer use the premium to implement a project development project at origin, 3) the project benefits either the farm workers or a nearby community.”

 

After learning a little about Think coffee it made me happy that the money I spent will help and give back. Cheers to positive changes!
