From now till May 12, 2008, Starbucks customers across the United States and Canada will have the opportunity to take part in an Earthwatch expedition in central Costa Rica, where they'll work side-by-side with local farmers and Earthwatch scientists to develop sustainable farming practices.

"This program is about so much more than winning a free expedition to Costa Rica, but rather to be involved in a program where participants can directly impact the environment and give back in a big way," said Ed Barker, director of corporate partnerships for Earthwatch, in a press release. "Participants are contributing to vital research that ensures long-term success for the farmers whose livelihood depends upon healthy land with a healthy future."

To learn more, or to enter the sweepstakes, visit the official contest Web site. The contest ends May 12, 2008 with a drawing of 20 winners. See Web site for official rules. ::Starbucks
