In PNAS, Hoang et al. (1) present a new approach to measure the risk of agricultural production on biodiversity by defining conservation risk hotspots that are “estimated and classified by comparing the percentage of land use for each agricultural commodity within a pixel and its CP [conservation priority] index.” This approach assumes that "increasing land-use proportions in a high-CP value pixel causes more risk hotspots between agricultural production and biodiversity conservation.” This insightful approach does not reflect other types of production impacts on biodiversity such as water and carbon footprints (2–4). Furthermore, to better inform consumers, it is important to assess impacts per unit of consumption because the typical consumers generally do not link distant land use and conservation risk hotspots with consumption. Here, we compare the production and consumption of coffee and tea,the most common beverages after water, and the two commodities analyzed in Hoang et al.
