I think it is going to be very interesting to watch them as their business model erodes during bad economic times. I’m not that big of a fan of Starbucks.

Of course this energy is not actually lost since the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_energy" rel="nofollow">law of conservation of energy</a> states we can't destroy energy (we just convert it into a state that is harder to use). But lots of fossil fuels need to be burned to supply clean water to a Starbucks. So pouring it straight away is, let's face it, bad news. @Joe

Obviously some will get lost during the process, but I should imagine a large percentage ends back up in the water system. I guess the waste is the cost of cleaning this clean water again.
