A talk about coffee and sustainability

For this Mandagsskolen workshop we will travel around the world of coffee to discover how producers, processors and consumers can cooperate to build more sustainable supply chains.

Our guests will be Francesco  Impallomeni, co-founder and roast master at Nordhavn Coffee Roasters, and Elena Allegri, of Green ERA, a University of Copenhagen consulting  group, which recently worked with Nordhavn Coffee Roasters to reduce the Company's GHG emissions and identifying cost -effective solutions.

According to different studies, which calculated the carbon footprint of the coffee supply chain, the higher emissions are concentrated in the final steps of the chain, which is when the coffee arrives in the consuming countries. These findings suggest that our choices as coffee roasters, distributors, baristas or consumers have a huge impact on the planet. 

At the origin, agricultural practices affect the quality of your cups and which flavors are expected in the coffee. The very same farming practices seem to be the main asset for the growers to increase resiliency in times of soaring temperatures and collapsing coffee prices.  

During the meeting the guests will have the opportunity to taste some amazing coffees from different origins and preparations
