nice approach i see here some similarities to our idea (the betacup campaign) specially
about the aid-organisations we suggest in one approach speccially the soup bike for kids
or the sponsorship for kids. And we have done some good research on our idea. Not only this i see here some approaches as well which other members have submitted. Here some examples:
Coffee to stay -> 11. Mai http://www.jovoto.com/contests/drink-sustainably/ideas/5011
Bring your own cup -> 5. April http://www.jovoto.com/contests/drink-sustainably/ideas/4610
Bonus Card -> 8. April http://www.jovoto.com/contests/drink-sustainably/ideas/4660
Sorry i have to say that your approach looks like a summary from some good other approaches! An appeal to the jury!
Correct me if i am wrong!

my big respect for your very well researched idea and your great elaboration. There are some similarities. Of course ... i also have the idea to save money by reducing waste. I also have the idea to be kind and give this saved money away again to do something good.
The thing is that i see a big gap between our idea-approaches. My claim is to give local-aid. This would be a very effective marketing measure in order to raise the customer loyalty by creation of a local identity. Tools are on one hand the customer scope of influence in their surroundings. This causes an advancement of their local knowlege with that a raised local awareness and with that a higher store bond. On the other hand the stores also get a high level of attention in the society of social facilitys. Great and cheap viral marketing. This is the effect and the aim of my idea, and this is alonestanding in this contest.
I have to say sorry about the "counter-subidea". I wrote that to jesko a few hours after i did the upload. I didn't saw that before. This was accidental and i must say that this tool-idea is so heavily alone-standing, that you have the copyright ( uups ... i have to say it ... :) ... but my counter is better than yours ... ). Honestly, an accident.
Finally i want to say, that i don't think that it's not allowed to conclude or to use things like, an own cup, an alu-to-go-cup or a bonus-card. Those things are important but beside the root idea and just as little unique as to have an idea building up a cup based on biodegradable raw materials.
Dear squalidsketch, it's my strong conviction that my idea is independent.
I'm a little bit sorry about your remark.
best regards
