Join Them: Food Advocates in 20 Cities Take to the Streets!

Hello everyone,

 

Next week, healthy food advocates in 20 cities across the country will

be leafleting their local Starbucks store as part of Starbucks Week of

Action! These actions are part of Food & Water Watch's campaign asking

Starbucks to stop using milk produced with recombinant bovine growth

hormone (rBGH), which harms cows and may harm people. We've been

steadily increasing the pressure on Starbucks to stop using artificial

hormones; now let's bring the message to their doorsteps. And, it's a

great opportunity to meet your friendly local food activist. I hope

you can take part!

 

Click on the city below to find out details of the leafleting taking

place in that city. (Note, actions that are private or for which I do

not have all the details are not listed.) If your city is not listed,

and you want to leaflet your local Starbucks next week, email

food(at)fwwatch.org and we will send you materials right away!
