Starbucks Smoking: Coffee House Chain Rolls Out New Policy Prohibiting 25 Feet From Its Store Front (Video)
The Starbucks franchise has unleashed a new policy: smokers will be forbidden to light up a cigarette within 25 feet of its storefronts. This new policy, which also bans smoking on patios, has just gone into effect on June 1 nationwide and Canada. 81.3 percent of the U.S. population lives under some kind of a ban on smoking, either in the workplace, restaurant or bars, according to the American Nonsmokers' Rights Foundation.
