Judge in California Afferms coffee cancer warning.

California judge affirms ruling for coffee cancer warnings

  • A Los Angeles judge finalized a ruling on this Monday 5/7/18 saying that coffee sold in California must carry cancer warnings.
  • The judge said roasters and retailers failed to show that benefits from drinking coffee outweighed any risks from a carcinogen that is a byproduct of the roasting process.
  • The final ruling clears the way for the Council for Education and Research on Toxics to seek a permanent injunction that would either lead to ominous warning labels or a commitment by the industry to remove the chemical from their product.

Weather /climate change and your coffee

Weather unpredictability/climate change is a leading factor in  future coffee prices. Making the small coffee grower looking to expand their land used to cultivate coffee.    Felling of rain forests will accelerate current trends in a changing climate. adding even more unpredictability to coffee supplies and future prices.   With the current world price at 90 cents a pound is making profitability in many countries nearly impossible With production cost at about $1.50 per pound.   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.
