Coffee’s ‘contribution to climate change' is just the ‘tip of the iceberg,’ study says

Canadian researchers analyzed coffee's "contribution to climate change" in a piece published in early January and suggested people moderate their consumption of the popular drink as a part of the solution.

Researchers Luciano Rodrigues Viana, Charles Marty, Jean-François Boucher and Pierre-Luc Dessureault wrote in an analysis published in The Conversation that pollution from preparing coffee was "just the tip of the iceberg."

"Limiting your contribution to climate change requires an adapted diet, and coffee is no exception. Choosing a mode of coffee preparation that emits less GHGs (greenhouse gases) and moderating your consumption are part of the solution," the researchers at the University of Quebec at Chicoutimi wrote.

The study also found that using coffee pods to brew coffee contributed less to the carbon footprint than brewing coffee with a traditional filter.

Remember the good old days when it was just SUVs that caused “Climate Change”?

Good one. The sad truth of course is that their ultimate motive is to somehow try to prove human breathing is what’s destroying the earth, as another excise to have all humans eliminated.

Not clueless, but crass and cowardly. If your funding depends on you reporting that 1+1 = 3, then why not manipulate the data to get 1+1 = 3?

And back to the Dark Ages we go, back when your “research” had better please the ruling class.

Another coordinated campaign. I just saw a blurb about this on Weather Underground.

Imagine how neurotic you have to be to even dream up such a “research” proposal. These have to be miserable, self-loathing people.

If they try to ban coffee, they’re going to have their throats slit by a bunch of caffeine junkies.

Study identifies something people like and says it should be banned to save the climate/ozone layer/baby seals.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

BINGO!!! Let the Elites lead by example.

Damn cowards, fraudsters, and ball-less cucks won’t sacrifice their lives for the planet. But they are more than happy to sacrifice OURS instead.

I’m starting my second Yeti cup of coffee made via our electric Cuisinart pot with a metal carafe. No reheating nor steady heat. All electric with no deadly killer natural gas.

I enjoyed my 2 glasses of red wine at dinner last night.

First they came for the gas stoves, then, they came for the coffee.

They think people flipped out over their proposal to ban gas stoves?

That is NOTHING compared to what will happen if they try to go after coffee.

And do not get me started on those silly pods. I want REAL coffee. From freshly ground beans.

I'm on my third cup...on my way to six. It's how I get my water...

For lunch...It's bacon, tomatoes spinach & scallions sauteed in olive oil...and topped with cheese....aka...pizza without the crust. I have this about 3 times a week for brunch.

I have cereal with WHOLE MILK for a snack about 10 PM. Lotsa vitamins and an extra shot of Vit D.

They got our incandescent lightbulbs and they’re coming for our gasoline motors, gas appliances and steaks—and now our coffee!
