NCA People and Planet Coffee Industry Sustainability

People & Planet 

The NCA guide to sustainability for the entire coffee supply chain. 

The coffee industry is dedicated to building a truly sustainable supply chain - from crop to cup, and meeting complex challenges that include climate change, community dynamics, and socioeconomic/political conditions that are found in many coffee-growing countries.

Given the enormity of these challenges, we all share a responsibility to work together towards solutions: government, NGOs, industry, and consumers.

As consumers, your choices matter. That's why the NCA is working with the US government, the United Nations, the International Coffee Organization, and Conservation International to help make a difference - and a measurable impact. Visit the Sustainable Coffee Challenge to learn more about what your favorite brands are doing.

Whether you're an NCA member or a coffee drinker, join us by learning more - and doing what's right for you or your organization - to help make coffee the world's first 100% sustainable agricultural product.
