Now a coffee ban? The WEF is eyeing coffee ...
American Thinker ^ | 18 May, 2024 | Eric Utter

Roughly 75% of Americans drink coffee every day.

That won’t be the case for long, apparently, if the elites at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, have their way.

Did anyone notice what they were talking about back in January during the 2024 World Economic Forum's Davos get-together?

During a recent WEF panel discussion, a reporter for Moneywise, in an item posted on Yahoo! Finance, reported that one speaker, some banker named Hubert Keller, remarked, “The coffee that we all drink emits between 15 and 20 tons of CO2 per ton of coffee.” Ominously, he added, “so we should all know that.”

Keller also noted, “Every time we drink coffee, we are basically putting CO2 into the atmosphere.”

What’s more, the production of coffee additives such as sugar and milk also puts large amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere.

While Keller didn’t overtly try to convince people to reduce or eschew their consumption of black gold, he must’ve had a reason for raising the topic.

In the aftermath of the pandemic, I now know that rulers and elites can, sadly, make regular folks believe -- and do -- just about anything.

They can tell them their job isn’t crucial. They can tell them they can’t go to the gym -- and can’t, in fact, leave their homes. They can tell them they can’t go to a loved one’s wedding or a family member’s funeral.

And they will be obeyed. In the future, the elites might be able to coerce folks into owning nothing -- and being happy about that fact. They might even be able to convince people to “eat ze bugs.”

But telling people to give up coffee will be a deal breaker, a bridge too far.

No kidding. I’m with you. I quasi-gave up coffee about a month ago because of heartburn issues. But that was my choice.… Do not take it away from me because of some bollocks BS. “I’m gonna drink coffee even harder now” /Michael Scott rif

Ashes from my burn pit, coffee grounds, egg shells. Plus I keep an old garbage can way out back for kitchen scraps.

Each spring I toss it all into the garden along with any straw I’ve used for over-wintering my fig trees. I’ve turned what was once lawn into some mighty sweet growing soil.

Technically, it's a cat

Hmmm,

"it's not coffee, it's cat poop".

"Oh, OK. As long as you're just eating and drinking poo it's fine"

How about we ban big polluters like private jets and stretch limousines?

Our world is carbon based so I’ve read. Also, coffee is a plant which means it takes in co2 and gives off oxygen. At least that’s what I remember from grade school science class. So any co2 given off by coffee would be used by the coffee plant and other plants to produce oxygen, wouldn’t it? I’m so confused and wonder why so many folks who don’t seem to know much about anything are allowed to confuse the rest of us.

“The coffee that we all drink emits between 15 and 20 tons of CO2 per ton of coffee.”

And everyone just accepts this absurdity. Plants grow by absorbing CO2 which is converted to starches and sugars through photosynthesis
