Many folks here I'm sure are well aware of the challenges facing coffee now and in the coming years. Thought this was a good short video about some of those issues.

https://worldcoffeeresearch.org/ WCR is an organization working on many of these issues.

Hello:

At roughly 01:28, the voice in the video cites arabica coffee as being the "good stuff", with a "... smooth and mild taste and is used for high quality coffee."

But imagine my surprise as while that was being said, the image shown to represent high quality coffee is a Starbucks container.

That was more than enough crisis for me.

Not surprising since Starbucks is a research partner and a second tier sponsor of the World Coffee Research organization.
