Episode Description:

This is Part 2 of a five-part series, Coffee Farms in a Decade from Now, with Pedro Manga from Caravela Coffee.

In this episode, the conversation focuses on deforestation and the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), and what it has revealed about the coffee industry. Pedro explains why producers are more likely to lose market access due to supply chain opacity than deforestation itself, and why traceability failures shift unfair responsibility upstream.

The discussion also explores accountability, cost, greenwashing, and why responsible production must be paired with responsible consumption if forests are truly to be protected.
