Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Coffee under threat
Do you drink coffee? If yes, you may start worrying about bitter future of this popular drink. Coffee harvest is declining in major producing areas, such as Ethiopia, the birthplace of coffee, and Brazil, the largest producer of coffee, according to a report published in Nature Plants today while coffee consumption has been on the rise globally.
Why so? Climate change to blame. Temperatures are rising and precipitations are declining in these coffee-producing regions. While you can sweeten or enrich coffee to enjoy drinking with sugar and milk, there don’t seem to be any instant solutions to the climate change on the planet.
Enjoy reading the text and think what you would do if a cup of regular coffee cost higher than the main dish.
