Despite Yields Doubling, NYTimes Claims Vanilla Is Disappearing From Climate Change

Despite Yields Doubling, NYTimes Claims Vanilla Is Disappearing From Climate Change
by James Taylor  5 hours ago 
 

The New York Times is attempting to stoke climate alarm this week with an article claiming the world’s favorite scent – vanilla – is about to disappear because climate change is eradicating vanilla plants. [emphasis, links added]

In reality, objective data show vanilla production has doubled since the year 2000, and the current market is saturated with oversupply.


The Times article, “This Is How the World’s Favorite Scent Disappears,” notes vanilla is the world’s favorite scent and is used in a wide variety of perfumes and other products.

Citing anecdotal events like a cyclone that hit Madagascar several years ago during its annual cyclone season, the Times claims supersized cyclones are putting vanilla plants on the verge of extinction.

It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I'm certain the NY Slimes just had a "clerical error." :whistle:
