I don’t think the world is going to go along with this one. Consequently, It is true as I roast my own coffee, that it gives off CO2 during and after roasting for a short while. But of course, CO2 is not a pollutant and plants depend on it like we humans depend on oxygen, and from where we get our oxygen. So don’t let these duplicitous cretins persuade you there is a crisis to let them steal your money further expanding their fortunes. And these coffee farms that produce most of the Arabica beans are already regenerative farmers as they don’t use chemicals and just harvest from the plants every year, and where I buy my beans from with only a single middleman who buys at auction giving the farmers a good price. Furthermore, he represents the OCGFC who are taking the 90% of the coffee income compared to the grower’s 10% as he mentions. So if you want to see the world the OCGFC create for farmers watch this documentary that shows you how they kill and destroy farmers and their families for their megacorp profits.
At a recent World Economic Forum meeting, discussions centered on the environmental implications of coffee consumption, with a focus on its contribution to CO2 emissions.
During a World Economic Forum (WEF) conference in Davos, Switzerland, the environmental impact of coffee consumption became a focal point of discussion, particularly its contribution to CO2 emissions. Swiss banker Hubert Keller, speaking at the event last Wednesday, emphasized the carbon footprint associated with coffee production and consumption.
Keller’s remarks highlighted a lesser-known aspect of our daily routines, noting that each cup of coffee we drink essentially results in CO2 emissions. According to Keller, coffee production, particularly through monoculture farming practices, is both impacted by and contributes to climate change. The alarming figures presented by Keller suggest that coffee production emits between 15 and 20 tonnes of CO2 per tonne of coffee produced.
This discussion at the WEF is part of a broader narrative where the organization has previously urged the public to consider plant-based diets and the use of electric vehicles as alternatives to more environmentally damaging options. These recommendations come amidst ongoing debates about the practicality and feasibility of such transitions.
In contrast to these recommendations, the personal carbon footprints of some WEF attendees have been questioned, especially in light of recent footage showing John Kerry, a prominent climate advocate, struggling to justify his frequent jet travels to such conferences.
The issue of coffee’s environmental impact, as brought up by Keller, underscores the complexities of balancing daily life choices with broader environmental concerns. It highlights the ongoing challenges in addressing climate change, where even commonplace activities like drinking coffee are scrutinized for their ecological implications.
