Will the Carbon Tax will affect your coffee beans?

12/7/2011

Carbon Pricing Fair Trade coffee beans.
 
Even if you wanted to contribute to the Carbon Tax, as a business, you would need to front up the the Federal Government seeking a big green elephant stamp, having being audited on your credentials right down to if you stock fair trade sourced coffee beans in your cafeteria. The introduction of a carbon price in Australia is not about saving the planet - it is about introducing a carbon price. I can agree that we *may* need a mechanism that the Government of the day can ramp up, should the rest of the world want to get serious on taxing (some) polluters, but the tax alone wont do anything to save our planet. If you want to learn about a solution that just might work, for only a few billion dollars, read 'Super Freakonomics', by Steven Levit, a Universitiy of Chicago economist.

Free Delivery

If you have the unpleasurable experience of hearing my incesant whining about the cost of delivery in Australia, either in person, or through my Twitter stream, you will know how passionate a topic it is to me. I frequently purchase goods online, usually from overseas and find myself laughing nervously at two points in the transaction. The first is when I track my item from the East Cost of USA, taking three days to, having traveled 7000kms to arrive at Alexandria for distribution domestically - only to then wait a further 7 days for the item to travel the final 200kms. The second laugh is when I purchase something from Asia, the total cost of the item, INCLUDING international delivery costs less than sending that same parcel to my next door neighbour. Its a fact - delivery efficiency and cost in Australia is out of whack. I beleive the future of online retail includes Free Delivery. Its a tough call, and I am happy to be proven wrong again, but for the simplicity and benefit of Bay Beans customers, I am going to give it my best shot.

Baristas spill the beans on making the perfect cup

Nothing goes better with a good book than a freshly brewed cup of coffee. For starters, coffee — as with wine — varies greatly in flavors, acidity and even texture. Roasting plays a role in the final flavor of the coffee, but so does the region in which the coffee was grown. One of the most significant factors on flavor involves the area in which coffee beans are grown. Latin American coffees are “familiar", with a clean finish and flavors of nuts and cocoa. Beans grown in African and Arabian regions are crisp and citrusy. Often coffees grown in this region contain floral aromas and hints of berries. Asia/Pacific coffees tend to be most robust in flavor and contain..... (Click through to the Bay Beans blog to read the full story)

Including P&P is an excellent move. I too am amazed at the cost of shipping items within Australia. Back in february I ordered a lawnmower from amazon UK and that only cost $30 to ship all the way to the Gold Coast, a lawnmower!


Not only that but I ordered it on Friday morning and it was in Sydney by Sunday, I was mowing the lawn Tuesday afternoon. I don't believe many Australian companies would have got the lawnmower to me any faster!


Good luck and I hope your sales go well,


Rob
