Not a big deal. Coffee is not a necessity. The coffee monoculture is devastating for the environment. Most small coffee farmers and plantation workers don't earn a livable income. Only 10% of the retail price of coffee goes to farmers. The whole industry is exploitative.

Don’t drink coffee. It’s that easy.

Ya but I love it, and there are plenty of small farms that do it for a living.
