Could the climate crisis kill coffee? Rising temperatures will cause production to decrease drastically in the world’s most suitable growing areas. Meanwhile, the crop requires huge amounts of water to irrigate, process and transport it across the world, which is quickly becoming unsustainable.

Luckily, different coffee actors, from brand-name companies to cooperatives and NGOs, are working together to help ensure this commodity remains with us by making each step along its value chain more resilient, adaptive and sustainable.

In this episode, originally aired during GLF Value Chains Week in December 2022, we speak with the Global Coffee Platform‘s executive director Annette Pensel and sustainability director of Jacobs Douwe Egberts (JDE Peet’s) Nadia Hoarau-Mwaura to pull back the curtain on what’s being done to protect these beloved beans.
