Wiley...could be! I've heard there could be a shortage of coffee, so,
no doubt that's at least one reason coffee prices are on the rise.

Everytime now onwards.that I drink coffee, I'll be calculating how much of a tree's yield I have consumed. That 'll be a good exercise?

Astounding fact. I don't drink coffee, but to me that's astounding. It reminds me to wonder, do we all consume much more than we need to?
