I have curiosity about this because I have not seen anything about it, but nobody knows if the caffeine in green tea and white tea are now?

A Department of Nutritional Services reports the following ranges of caffeine content for a cup of tea made with loose leaves:

A cup of Green tea (6 oz) contains 8 to 36 mg of caffeine.
A cup of White tea contains 6 to 25 mg of caffeine.
A cup of Oolong tea contains 12 to 55 mg of caffeine.
A cup of Black tea ranges from 23 – 110 mg.
Coffee generally contains 60 – 180 mg of caffeine.
