This is how the world’s favorite scent [which comes from the vanilla bean] disappears

Summary:

Vanilla is ubiquitous in our daily lives, found in a wide range of products from food to cosmetics.
Vanilla is the world's favorite scent, preferred across diverse cultures according to scientific studies.
Vanilla is under threat due to the delicate growing conditions required for the vanilla orchid, which is vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
Major vanilla-producing regions like Madagascar, Mexico, and Tahiti are being devastated by stronger cyclones and storms, damaging vanilla crops.
The price of vanilla has surged in recent years due to supply shortages, with a single pound of vanilla beans costing nearly $300.
The loss of real vanilla would be devastating, as vanilla substitutes cannot replicate the complex, nuanced flavor of the real thing.
The history of vanilla's rise as a global commodity is intertwined with the story of a 12-year-old enslaved boy named Edmond Albius, who discovered the technique to hand-pollinate vanilla orchids.
Vanilla's dependence on a narrow band of the tropics makes it highly susceptible to the effects of deforestation and climate change.
Vanilla farmers face a long wait of up to 4 years for a single vanilla orchid to blossom, exacerbating the crop's vulnerability.
The potential loss of real vanilla would deprive us of cherished memories and experiences, such as baking with vanilla alongside family.

I'm not giving my email. How does an archive link work? I am currently buying vanilla and the dilution is so broad ranging.
