Coffee with the Clintons.

  You are in your favorite booth at the local coffee shop. When who walks thro the door? Black tie, white shirt, pin stripe jacket.  Are they filming a new Men in Black episode? Is your first thought.

You slide the window drape to one side and what do you see? A small army of well dressed men and one somewhat familiar face.

The door swings open and your suspicions are confirmed, it's her... Hillary Clinton. She makes her way thro the room shaking hands offering warm good morning greetings to all she meets.

   Your a republican....You voted for Mitt...You have your Tea Party hat on....Your hunting rifle in on the rifle rack in the cab of your truck.
   She is coming your way....oh no....you have eye contact. Miss Clinton offer you her hand saying how she much admires you hat. As you shake hands you complement her on her pants suit. A laugh fills the air. With a light chuckle  Miss Clinton continues to the next booth
.
Your coffee has grown cold as ice from the chill running thro your bones. Your usual refill may have to be skipped today. All you can think of is the possibility of 4 or 8 more years of the Clintons.

The shortest answer is to grow more coffee witch takes more land, ,fewer trees, more c02, additional climate effects . Climate change and general weather unpredictability are one of the driving forces in the roller coaster ride coffee prices are having and will likely continue to have in the foreseeable future. Perhaps second only to the never ending political unrest in many coffee growing regions.

Used coffee grounds can help stop global warming.

With the environment in the news lately. Here is one you didn't see coming. Used coffee grounds are very good at storing Methane. Methane is a global warming gas many times more potent that carbon dioxide.With Methane having one advantage over Carbon Dioxide. That is Methane can be used as a fuel. The process to make this work is relative simple with the moist used coffee grounds being heated with potassium hydroxide. So who cares you may be asking yourself. While It's not likely your local power company will be digging around in your trash ben for your used coffee grounds in order to capture and store their Methane emissions. Some smaller producers of Methane emissions may have some interest. Many oil wells also produce small amounts of natural gas. The volume of gas is so small that it's uneconomical to lay the needed pipe in order to place this gas into the natural gas lines that heat your home. So this g...
