The Future of Farms and Climate Change
Manage episode 305501471 series 2989326
Almost all of the carbon footprint in your morning cup of coffee is created after it leaves the farm, and yet farmers are the ones experiencing outsized, immediate impacts of carbon related climate change.
Sustainability experts, coffee farmers and climate researchers weigh in on where carbon lives in the coffee lifecycle (and where it doesn’t), the surprising ways cafes can mitigate their impact immediately (hint: it’s not compostable straws), and what the future looks like for coffee farms if we don’t act today.
Featuring:
- Marianella Baez Jost, Founder, Farmers Project Costa Rica and Cafe Con Amor
- Kim Elena Ionescu, Chief Sustainability and Knowledge Development Officer at Specialty Coffee Association
- Fernanda Avila Swinburn | Senior Research Analyst, Boundless Impact
