      @Kiss Kissthere is no caffeine in it, i guess if you are decaf drinker then i can see it that way. flavor wise I’m sure it’s not even close.

      @M No, I am not a decaf drinker. I have been drinking Coffee since the dawn of time.. lol.. I am in my 50s.. And so, I understand your take on it.. Regardless, If I had a choice of ZERO coffee, or an alternative? I am sure we could train our minds to think it was coffee, moving forward.

    Does anybody know if CNET was bought by the world economic forum or something? It’s non stop propaganda now. I think they aspire to be the “tech” CNN.

    FFS – the people that have been in charge and have all the money for the last 50 years are responsible.

    We need to take them out.

    Terrifying, yes. Informative…also yes! Great video. Hope it gets seeded out to the masses as it should.

    Great information in this video, I’ll be sharing. I appreciate when CNET takes their time to deep dive into subjects!

    The ones to blame is the politicians for letting organisations corporations and industries destroy the environments and wildlife habitats just for greed .

    Ironically, the artificial introduction of biodiversity into crop species, by genetic engineering (both transgenesis and genome editing) gets treated as a pariah by some of the same people who bemoan the loss of biodiversity.

    As to using genetic engineering to protect wild species, just look at the campaign against the realistic effort to restore American chestnut to eastern forests by giving the tree a gene to resist the devastating fungus that has nearly wiped it out.

    could just be an excuse to increase the price of coffee 🤔

    I stumbled onto the banana disease on an article, soon realized there should be more crops affected by diseases. I am so disapointed MY favorite crop avocado is affected. I am a vegeterian so vegetables are kinda my main source of energy. I hope science can figure the disease problems out.
