OUR CLIMATE ACTION STORIES & INITIATIVES
SUMMARY OF OUR CLIMATE ACTION POINTS
Once a year, a climate action specialist from Climate Wave Coffee thoroughly evaluates our café operations and compares them with an effective climate action framework called Climate Wave Coffee Solutions. The total number of solutions provided by the framework that we have implemented, or we have influenced our suppliers to implement, is identified, and this number becomes our climate points for the year. We then work towards improving these points. Here are our climate points:
