This is the 3rd in a 5-part series on The Daily Coffee Pro Podcast by Map It Forward with first-time guest Bram de Hoog from Paso Paso Coffee Roasters - a unique coffee roasting brand based in Hannover, Germany and co-owned and supplied by 9 producers from around the globe.

In this series of the podcast, Lee and Bram discuss the viability of specialty coffee in 2024 and beyond.

It prompts listeners to reconsider the sustainability of current practices within the coffee industry, and how entities like Paso Paso are offering alternatives to traditional models that may be more beneficial to producers facing financial pressures.

This is the 4th in a 5-part series on The Daily Coffee Pro Podcast by Map It Forward with first-time guest John Abatzoglou. John is a Professor of Climatology at the University of California Merced.

In this series of the podcast, host Lee Safar and guest John will discuss the Impact of climate change on the coffee supply chain.

In this episode John and Lee discuss the impact of climate change on coffee agriculture and explore how rising CO2 levels could potentially enhance plant growth, offering some offset to declining yields due to warmer temperatures.

The episode also speculates on the possible emergence of new coffee-growing areas due to reduced freeze events, though this comes with its own set of challenges such as displacement of current crops and the need for adaptation.

The topic of innovation in the face of climate change is emphasized, suggesting that the coffee industry will be compelled to find new solutions in agriculture, energy, water management, and labor, due to the complex nature of its supply chain and the static price of coffee over the last 30 years.

The discussion also highlights concerns about labor in the face of increasing temperatures and the potential for artificial intelligence to assist in agricultural tasks.

Finally, the episode touches on the importance of intentional business practices that align with consumer values, especially among younger generations, to address climate change challenges.

Our guest for this series is US-based industry veteran, Madeleine Longoria Garcia. Having returned from the SCA Expo in Chicago, this series is focused on exploring 'The Conversations We're Not Having in Coffee That We Should Be Having".

In this episode of the series, Madeleine and Lee delve into the concerning trends within the coffee industry.

They take a critical look at the unsustainable quest for cheaper coffee by businesses, which is seen as a sign of unhealthy business practices.

Reflecting on their observations from the recent SCA Expo in Chicago, noting a 'crack in the glass' – a metaphor for the unsettling realization among industry participants that there's a disconnection from meaningful engagement and a need for a critical reevaluation of the coffee business model.

They argue that at its core, the coffee industry is built on a colonialist foundation that marginalizes producers and benefits a select few.

Throughout the episode, the discussion focuses on the necessity of empathy in business practices, the need for educated and responsible business owners in the coffee industry, and a call to action for producers to refuse to sell their coffee at unsustainably low prices.

The episode wraps up with a teaser for the next part of the series, which will tackle the issue of paying beyond the cost of production.
