You make it seem like they knew and just ignored the risks of lowering the biodiversity. The exceptionally more likely scenario is they had no idea what those risks were.

It’s also complete clickbait nonsense to suggest blue cheeses will go away. When the reality is they may add some more colors, or have to come up with some more options. But these cheeses aren’t going anywhere.



If blue cheese is no longer blue then you could argue it did go away.


It doesn't seem there is a much of a problem with blue cheese in general. Some strains of blue molds are endangered, but there are plenty of other blue molds that are fine.

According to the article Camembert and Brie are more at risk as their white mold is more rare. They won't disappear either, but if we don't do something, they may stop being white and start being blue, and maybe taste a little different. It doesn't mean they can't make good cheeses, but it will be different from the cheeses we know.
