I love this. The coffee brand Not1Bean is the first global brand that put the “We Don’t Have Time Review us” 💚💡⚠️ badge on its packaging—ensuring their customer to give them climate reviews. Not1Bean is the only coffee brand that roasts their beans in the same country they are farmed—ensuring that the maximum revenue is left in the hands of the producers. Not1Bean approch to roasting the beans before shipping means up to 20% weight reductions in our oceans and fewer transports, saving co2. Best of all. The coffee taste is delicious. My favorite!

ABOUT THE CMA The Competition and Markets Authority, (CMA), works to promote competition for the benefit of consumers, both within and outside the UK, with staff in London, Edinburgh, Belfast and Cardiff. Competition that works for everyone Competition is good for consumers and businesses. It means that people get better products at lower prices, and it helps ensure the most consumer-focused and innovative businesses are the ones that succeed. Responsibilities The CMA work to ensure that consumers get a good deal when buying goods and services, and businesses operate within the law. They do this in a number of ways: investigating mergers between organisations, to make sure they don’t reduce competition investigating entire markets if they think there are competition or consumer problems taking action against businesses and individuals that take part in cartels or anti-competitive behaviour protecting consumers from unfair trading practices encouraging government and other regulators to use competition effectively on behalf of consumers "The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is an independent non-ministerial department. Our work is overseen by a Board, and led by the Chief Executive and senior team. Decisions in some investigations are made by independent members of a CMA panel." Following a call for information on environmental claims last year, and consultation on draft guidance in May, on the 20th of Septemeber 2021 the CMA published their ‘Green Claims Code’ The aim of the Code is to help businesses understand how to communicate their green credentials while reducing the risk of misleading shoppers. It focuses on six principles which are based on existing consumer law, and follows extensive consultation with businesses of all sizes and consumer groups. The CMA will carry out a full review of misleading green claims, both on and offline, at the start of 2022. Businesses should check their green claims against the Code and seek legal advice if they are unsure whether their claims comply with the law. The Code is part of a wider awareness campaign which the CMA has launched ahead of COP26. You can find out more at these links Press release Their campaign site, which includes a green claims quiz Video Twitter Cecilia Parker Aranha, Director of Consumer Protection at the UK's Competition and Markets Authority, spoke about the Green Claims Code on the latest Climate Solutions Live broadcast.

Where charities sell coffee their supply lines often worsen the problems they aim to eradicate. Suppliers don't share the same priorities as non profits and don't always share the full picture, the result being that coffee suppliers to some of the world's largest charities are causing incredible amounts of environmental damage in their pursuit of profits. Obviously charities aren't informed as their coffees are re-exported back and forth across oceans, causing enormous avoidable climate damage - in fact none of the current certification systems take these extra ocean crossings into account. Nor are they informed about the thousands of unnecessary road journeys taken before their 'climate friendly' coffees reach supporters and donors. Coffee needs to be roasted before shipping - making it up to 20% lighter and then shipped once - in the case of coffees supplied to charities the opposite is true on both counts. We'll continue to make charities and their supporters aware that the coffees they're buying are exacerbating the very issues they hold dear. Charities should not be part of the problem. At NOT1BEAN all our coffees are roasted first and then shipped once. www.not1bean.com Partners to We Don't Have Time - the largest social network for the planet. https://youtu.be/ADJLZiAqVCM

This is an idea with impact. If charities are aware of the problem they may not buy from suppliers who are a part of the problem.

What if every university across the planet had also been misled about their carbo footprint, and every airline? In fact what if every organisation anywhere that sells coffee, even charities running promotions encouraging their supporters to buy coffee in the belief that their donations help the environment, what if all of them have underestimated their carbon footprint? Huge corporations are buying millions of tonnes of coffee in a way that they've been assured is 'climate friendly' when in fact it's the exact opposite. To be fair it's not the fault of the carbon advisory bodies, the blame for this lies solely with the global coffee sector itself. Condensing a problem of this size is usually very difficult, fortunately in the case of the second most traded commodity on the planet it's fairly easy to understand, and thankfully not that hard to change. There are only two points of note, two facts that when combined mean that the coffee sector is causing environmental damage on a colossal scale: 1 Coffee is up to 20% lighter in weight after roasting yet the vast majority (over 90%) is shipped whilst it's still in the heavier state. 2 These heavier coffees often criss cross the same oceans, in fact millions of tonnes are currently advertised as ready for re-export in warehouses across the world. Nothing happens to this product before reshipping, it simply recrosses oceans until intermediaries have taken their cut. The coffee is then roasted in consumer countries - and then incredibly, it's sent back out once more onto the world's road networks before it reaches supermarkets or consumers, quite often marked as 'climate friendly' to lure unsuspecting consumers into believing they're helping the planet. Millions more unnecessary journeys. Far more coffee must be roasted at source, and it should then only ever be transported directly to the retailer or consumer. At NOT1BEAN we never roast coffee outside of the producing country, after all no profits are generated until the roasting stage and developing countries need all the help they can get (to mitigate climage change for one thing) and of course we always deliver directly to the retailer of consumer. Right now we're the only coffee supply company guaranteeing this, and none of the coffee certifying bodies even take these unnecessary journeys into account. Carbon neutrality advisors don't have the full picture and frankly the coffee sector doesn't seem in any rush to give it to them. We really don't have time for this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tEQA1nnj9U

Students want and expect their universities to be taking responsibility for a sustainable future - keeping global warming below 2°C. The University of Manchester "The quality and scale of our impact against the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has been ranked first in the world in the Times Higher Education University Impact Rankings in 2021." People & Planet, the largest student network in the UK campaigning for social and environmental justice "Our mission is to build an empowered generation of change-makers who are equipped with life-long skills, motivation and networks to be a force for change in achieving a more equitable and sustainable world." Universities worldwide serve hundreds of thousands, if not millions of tonnes of coffee to their student body, and yet these coffees are initially shipped in a far heavier state than they need be and undergo many unnecessary journeys before reaching campus - often needlessly re-crossing oceans! This applies to every single university worldwide and yet not one university ranking organisation takes this account when declaring institutions such as The University of Manchester "first in the world in the Times Higher Education University Impact Rankings in 2021." Coffee not roasted prior to shipping and shipped more than once can never be climate friendly. https://youtu.be/3oli0YjyiUc

"King's College London is committed to reporting its sustainability targets, as well as progress towards them, annually. We are proud to have been ranked fifth in the world in the inaugural 2019 Times Higher Education Impact Rankings, recognising our contribution to achieving the UN SDGs." Credit where credit is due. However, despite claims such as those quoted above, it's of some concern that throughout the KCL campus we only see coffees served to students that are the very opposite of climate friendly. Many millions of tonnes of unroasted green coffee are re-exported across the world's oceans annually, the criss-crossing of these oceans, and subsequent unnecessary air and road journeys, coming to an end only once profits have been maximised. None of KCL coffees are roasted prior to initial shipping, despite coffee being up to 20% heavier by weight when shipped unroasted. This is alarming in itself and should be a red flag to a progressive university when considering coffee suppliers - let alone the millions of tonnes shipped back and forth across the same oceans annually in their name and subsequently labelled 'climate friendly'. Coffees that are not roasted prior to shipping, and then shipped more than once, cannot be considered climate friendly. The diversion of coffee roasting income from developing countries exacerbates the modern-day slavery and child labour ackowledged as widespread throughout the global coffee belt, and the needless re-exporting of green unprocessed coffees across our oceans, on a scale almost too massive to fully comprehend, should be of the utmost concern to universities and students alike. Unfortunately environmental watchdogs such as those relied on to verify the sustainable credentials of coffees do not differentiate between those roasted first then shipped only once, as they should of course be, and those shipped unnecessarily back and forth across our oceans skies and roads in order to maximise profits. "In recent times the most credible scientific institutions have all consistently warned that what used to be an environmental problem, has now become a Climate Crisis and it is generally accepted that we have approximately a decade to avert climate catastrophe." We Don't Have Time. The coffee industry must change on a huge scale - without further delay. Roast First Ship Once. www.not1bean.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTzlbzYbBhM
