It may have economic causes, but many attribute it to climate change activists urging people to substitute local products for imported ones. They unfortuntely dont consider how much carbon the product has absorbed over the lifetime of an average tree. For 15 years the tree absobs some the carbon immitted over the past 150 years by developed countries. If raw nuts are shipped by sea, they arrive at your table carbon negative. The effect of the glut is that nut trees will be cut down to plant bannanas or sugar. How much carbon dioxide will now be sent into the atmosphere? It seems that climate change activists inadvertantly cause more global warming with their activism. Macadamia Nut Producers face a market glut in nuts.
