• Announced a partnership with research scientists at the University of Pennsylvania, Tulane University + Harvard University to study the effects of its carbon labels on consumer behavior
  
  
• Provided a preliminary carbon footprint comparison of the Reusable Bowl versus disposable bowls, estimating that the environmental benefits of the Reusable Bowl vs. a disposable bowl are achieved after as few as four uses
  
  
• Estimated waste prevention from its REDUCE & REUSE programs apart from the Reusable Bowl -- including Utensil Reduction, Bagless Pickup & Checkout, and Bag Size Reduction -- to be 50,000 pounds annually
  
  
• Called on policymakers + customers to support its efforts to accelerate the transition to a net-zero world, following the exponential roadmap framework
   
  
• Reiterated the waste management challenges posed by disposable gloves
  
  
• Outlined new supplier standards related to packaging sustainability
