Chocolate

THIS SHOULD PUT YOUR OTHER PROBLEMS INTO PERSPECTIVE

"We have to figure out how to grow it sustainably.  Nobody wants to lose chocolate."  --Carol Knight, of the American Cocoa Research Institute.

For decades cocoa has been grown in large monoculture plantations, but diseases are wiping it out faster than it can be replaced.  The only hope for the survival of chocolate is to grow cocoa in its natural habitat, tropical rainforest, where the biodiversity protects cocoa against disease and pests.  Conservationists and chocolate makers seem to have found a common goal.
    Here's this ecosystem built around a treat that could be good for the world.  --Industrial scientist for M&M/Mars.

So, save the rainforest, or no more chocolate!  That *would* be the end of the world!
