Climate change could lower the quality of your coffee

Libs won’t know if it happens, they drink Starbucks (ugh!).

Climate change gave us coffee.

Let’s flog the water.

The problem is coffee producers aren't paid enough...

Really? I remember when coffee was 10 cents a cup with unlimited refills, then there was a coffee "shortage" and the price shot up. So who is making all the money off coffee if not the producers? The distributors? The retailers?

YEEEEK!

Something new, for the “GOREeans”, from Planet GORE, to try and scare us with.

Why Does the Sun Shine?
They Might Be Giants

The sun is mass of incandescent gas,
a gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
at a temperature of millions of degrees

Yo ho it’s hot,
the sun is not
a place where we could live
But here on earth
there’d be no life without the light it gives

We need its light,
we need its heat,
we need its energy
Without the sun,
without a doubt,
there’d be no you and me

The sun is mass of incandescent gas,
a gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
at a temperature of millions of degrees

The sun is hot
It is so hot that everything on it is a gas
Iron, copper, aluminum and many others

The sun is large
If the sun were hollow, a million earths could fit inside
And yet the sun is still only a middle-sized star
The sun is far away
About 93, 000, 000 miles away, and that’s why it looks so small
And even when it’s out of sight, the sun shines night and day

The sun gives heat,
the sun gives light,
the sunlight that we see
The sunlight comes from our own sun’s atomic energy
Scientists have found that the sun
is a huge atom-smashing machine
The heat and light of the sun come from the nuclear reactions
Of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen and helium

The sun is mass
of incandescent gas,
a gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
at a temperature of millions of degrees

CNN WILL lower the quality of your brain!

[Right Wing Assault]

The US will be making synthetic coffee by then.

Ahhh climate change, is there anything it can't do?

[Trillian]

"The problem is coffee producers aren't paid enough, so helping them adapt to a very difficult complex, changing situation like you see with climate change and extreme weather events is very, very difficult to do," Neuschwanker said.

But, but.. I thought the problem was climate change? Got to love their fake news. If you're thinking about writing fiction, it might be interesting to read every day.

If you take out “should, would, and could” from the climate change “literature” such as it is, there would be very little left to talk about.

"There might be a credibility issue here."

It now occurs to me:

All these warmist gloom-and-doom predictions involve changes 'in the future':

Coffee will get worse; birds' eggs will get smaller; winters will get shorter/longer; and so on, and so on ....

Yet, the premise is that 'man-made global warming' has been going on for so long now -- since industrialization began -- that they can measure it in the temperature record. They can: with a mathematical precision.

Therefore, shouldn't its effects have already kicked in?

Shouldn't coffee already have become scarce? And birds' eggs have become smaller?

Why is it always cast in the future tense?

Please show 1880 shorelines worldwide that were lower than they are now, and then we can talk about how carbon burning leads to sea level rise. Claiming, predicting, and modelling that it will happen in the future is not an answer.

Why didn't it happen in the last 130 years, if it's going to happen in the next 130 years under the same circumstances?

[Behind the Blue Wall]

They do try to make the argument that “climate changes is already here!”, but it’s a double edged sword if you ask me because if “this” is what the world will look like under climate change . . . it ain’t too bad!
