„That same week, the company announced a one-time shipment of 75,000 pounds of Fair Trade coffee. We responded that for a firm as big as Starbucks, this represented a "Drop in the Cup"--an average of only about 30 pounds per store--and the coffee was not certified! We then circulated an Open Letter, signed by 84 student, environmental, church, and social justice organizations, again asking Starbucks to pay farmers a living wage and offer their customers Fair Trade Certified coffee. We helped plan 30 demonstrations that were scheduled for April 13 across the country at Starbucks shops.“

Yet producers in some countries are already starting to rip out their coffee plants and replace them with other crops, which would eventually prop up price“
