Wow maybe because the price of coffee is so high, maybe Starbucks is afraid that more supply is coming onto to the market, thus more competition(and the excuse of global warming).
Whenever I hear "global warming", I trust Adam Smith.
Oh , didn't we hear that bananas were going to be gone by 2010 in 1995.

BS. People will be growing coffee in huge indoor greenhouses if need be.

OH BS.
About half the coffee is grown at high altitude at cool temps. If there was global temp increase they would just start growing valley coffees at high altitudes.
Besides, who says coffee might not grow better with warmer temps, I mean we would have a longer growing season.

Or maybe the Smokey Mountains will become the world’s leading coffee producing region.
Juan Valdez and his burro will lose their place on the can to be replaced by Bubba Pruitt and his pickup.

Starbucks must be planning to raise their prices again and are inventing the justification.

Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (the Keurig people) are tripling their production plant so I guess they don’t have smart “scientists” like Starbucks.

Well, of course that “prediction” assumes - and we all know the associate litany accompanying that word - moving coffee plantations to more salubrious climes that, lo and behold, might just produce even better/more flavorful coffee !
OTOH the “prediction regarding bananas” might just be almost true; just not solely due to “climate change”. Bananas are cloned and a long-time pest afflicting their cultivation is making increasing inroads in traditional growing areas.
I’m always amused that those proclaiming “science” in support of their arguments often have so little knowledge of it ! >PS

Coffee will be around as long as cockroaches. Hopefully Starbucks will be gone next year.

I remember my parents used to always keep a pot of coffee going. If they traveled with us we would have to stop in the morning for coffee. They only drank it black.
I can take it if I add enough sugar and creamer, can’t even begin to drink it black.
