Change Italy locations number from the wrong current number to 37 which is the correct number updated to today April 13th 2024 (see Starbucks Wikipedia page in italian language for reference) Dezisnotonfire (talk) 18:09, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: The corresponding article in Italian doesn't have a source for there being 37 locations, and I couldn't find one that did. 〜 Askarion ✉ 20:46, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Adding new content to environmental practices section

It was recently announced that Starbucks and Mercedes-Benz teamed up to install electric vehicle (EV) chargers at Starbucks locations, supporting sustainability efforts and the development of EV infrastructure. Source. Is this a good piece to add to the environmental practices section? Bahooka or Villa503 Appreciate your thoughts.

Boycott amidst the 2023 Israel-Hamas war

"to sue the Starbucks Workers United (SWU) union for making a social media post in solidarity with Palestine" This only mentions the first part of what happened, but not the second. Which consequently gives a totally false impression of why Starbucks sued. The union in question posted a quote tweet that read 'Solidarity with Palestine' - yes that parts true. What context is missing is what they were quote tweeting: An anti-Israel account showing Hamas tearing down the border fence so they could invade Israel and proceed to massacre over 1,000 Israelis. Sentence should be re-worded to provide full context, instead of partial. https://www.ynetnews.com/article/s10bmni116

I agree. It is flat out false that to state SWU “[made] a social media post in solidarity with Palestine” when the post was over a picture of Hamas breaking into Israel on October 7. It should read “…social media post supporting Hamas.” https://apnews.com/article/starbucks-workers-united-union-lawsuit-israel-palestinian-f212a994fef67f122854a4df7e5d13f5 71.179.129.209 (talk) 01:02, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
