Is it possible to see how much if any money was given to the committee from the coffee industry?
Seems to me like the scientific community should be overly open about its sources of funding, conflicts of interest, etc if it wants to maintain public trust going forward.
But the "scientific community", so far as such a thing exists, can't censure news reports, government reports, or corporate reports that claim "X is true because science". It also cannot stop someone from publishing a "scientific" journal.
"Science" is not a Trade Mark, and scientists cannot solve for clueless consumers who believe everything if you say "because science!" Especially when those same consumers fail to fund / pay attention in quality post-secondary science education.
