This makes sense. A whole currency system of cheese would make more sense than the modern economics of voodoo, magic, and make believe.
So, billionaires, how much are those billions worth when you can’t buy Parmigiano Reggiano anymore because it no longer exists?
Billions.
you assume they won’t just pay to have the cheese experts come work at their Swedish silo’s making cheese only for them, in environmentally regulated conditions…
prerequisite for being a billionaire is not caring at all about other people.
Look if we can build climate control systems for giant rooms filled with 100kW slop generating heaters then pretty sure we can cool some cheese down …
The thing about building a system that isn’t usually required is that you gonna have to spend the time finding people to do it, then wait for them to import the required hardware because there’s usually no ready stock available, and then have to spend time to install. This is why china able to adapt so fast when the heatwave come while europe suffer, it’s because china is one of the country that make and sell AC unit.
They totally can build a climate control system and cool down their cheese, but it takes time.
I think if governments really cared about it (maybe they care about their banks … I dunno) they’d make it happen asap, also it’s not like Italy doesn’t have manufacturing capability
they don’t and won’t. insurance covers products like that, banks are protected and its banks that instruct most governments these days as there is very little independent oversight worldwide at the moment.
you are ignoring the issue that has always been a problem in Europe. they ignore everything till it’s too late. if it’s not affecting those in positions of wealth and power, it’s not a concern.
rising temperatures were seen starting in the 1990s. AC was installed in many upscale homes, restaurants and government offices… but nothing else was done. no planning and continued acting like it’s a fluke…
Portable Ac units with exhaust ducts out of the cave or whatever special storage space in the meantime would go a long way here.
Long enough that temporary might turn permanent.
Ahhh so this explains the Parmesan cartel. If you don’t know, the only “true” Parmesan comes from Italy and there’s a cartel of pretty ruthless (legally, not like drug cartels or anything lol) people that try their best to keep it that way.
There was a bunch of drama once about a guy in the US that was a cheese making hobiest that tried to make his own parmesan using some methods he thought of. The Parmesan cartel in Italy sent him a cease and decist letter.
this is true across a wide variety of products deemed “cultural exports” by the eu and is a portion of their soft power throughout the globe
The names Parmigiano Reggiano and Parmesan are protected designations of origin (PDO) for cheeses produced in these provinces under Italian and European law.[1] Outside the EU, the name Parmesan is legally used for imitations, with only the full Italian name unambiguously referring to PDO Parmigiano Reggiano.[2] A 2021 press release by the Italian farmer-rancher association Coldiretti reported that, in the United States, 90% of “Italian sounding” cheese sold as parmesan, mozzarella, grana, and gorgonzola was produced domestically.
(legally, not like drug cartels or anything lol)
I don’t believe you……
They may have gone legit, though. (Although… there is that island that makes the cheese with the jumping maggots… that’s technically illegal.)
Is that why my favorite kind of cheese is so much more expensive than every other kind of cheese?
Tax that cheese!
its pronounced par-me-si-an
