Coffee, a commodity of great value

Let’s talk about coffee. About the coffee aroma that awakens our energy in the early mornings, in any season.

About the contagious fragrance that brings us a sort of comfort and satisfaction, something we cannot miss in our daily routine.

With Climate change, there will not be much more time ahead for our favorite drink to be easily available. It will become scarce and out of reach for many ordinary people.

Climate changes are taking their toll on that very special drink and there is no doubt that they will affect tremendously the cultivation of coffee.

Coffee plants grow only in specific conditions. The ideal places for the cultivation of Coffea Arabica are being dismantled by raising temperatures, severe winters with low temperatures, and soil erosion due to Climate change.

A Journal's Origin

In the middle of a pandemic emotions and reflections seem to be more intense than in other times. We develop questions in our mind about ourselves like what we really are, what is the role of our existence, no matter where you live in any continent!

 

Staying isolated, watching the pain of the ones who lost their loved ones, feeling small and helpless we devoted our time analyzing what is going on around the Globe.

 

During a lockdown, we wake up to the fact that we all belong to a whole, to the same planet and we find that anybody in any continent can observe and voice opinions about the latest events such as the Virus, Climate Changing, Global Warming and so goes on!

 

We are surrounded by uncertainties, fears, and doubts. What is Global Warming, is it a reaction of the Planet against the pollution of the seas, against the devastation of forests, against the growing use of natural resources?

 

We are in dark mode, looking around us, becoming more curious, waiting for answers that may not come, but yet all of us live on the same planet.

 

We are part of the problem because we make part of this as a whole and have the obligation to be responsible and responsive to what is affecting the Globe and work with the possible means in our hands to make it better.

 

So, it was in the middle of that, which was maybe the most difficult time in our lives, the center of the biggest sanitary crisis that we decided to voice our thoughts through a journal. This journal is a loner, it has no political ties or ideology, no pretension to be something bigger than it is, it is just the expression of something that has been looked at, but never seen from what is happening on our planet these days!
