Boycott Starbucks and support "patient capital."
What is "patient capital"? Jacqueline Novogratz
Founder and CEO of Acumen Fund says, it is "Capital whose purpose is to generate social and financial value that can be invested for long-term benefits; capital that is available to courageous entrepreneurs taking bigger risks on new ideas who cannot promise large short-term profits, but can offer the possibility of breakthrough business models that make our world more sustainable."
