They are probably delighted to have this attention, you know, "any publicity is good publicity". I think we should be finding locally owned coffee shops in our area that already or are willing to carry Fair Trade/Organic/Shade Grown coffee and publish their websites and locations, and then go drink coffee there. Starbucks is over. Starbucks is not an ethical company, which is why they do not actually keep their promise about Fair Trade Coffeee.
