Many companies that promote health and/or environmental causes seem to be doing the environment quite an injustice in the eyes of those who believe climate change will destroy the world. If these organizations believe in global warming or at least in a healthy lifestyle, then obviously they should walk-the-walk... right?
Jamba Juice promotes their smoothies as natural, fresh, and healthy. In fact, most of their cups include Jambaism #5: "Your body is a temple. Littering is strictly prohibited." Not so much when it comes to the environment, though. A typical Jamba smoothie comes in a polystyrene cup, which has a recycling number of 6.
Another juicy offender... Naked Food Juice, which sells at wide array of stores for a whopping $3 or more per bottle. Each plastic bottle is marked with the recycling numbers 2 and 7, but it's confusing whether the 7 refers to the label, the cap or the bottle itself. Something there is definitely not recyclable.
And finally, there's the tastiness of Dunkin' Donuts coffee. Purchasing a medium size (or larger) pipping hot cup of java results in the use of another polystyrene cup at various locations.
The jury is still out on whether global warming can be stopped... in the meantime... cheers to good health?
