Tridge summary

A recent study by Australian scientists, including from CSIRO, the National Science Agency of Australia, and the University of South Queensland, has revealed the adverse effects of global climate change on coffee production. The research, published on March 10, 2023, indicates that from 1980 to 2020, the top 12 coffee-growing regions have experienced a surge in natural disasters due to climate change, raising the risk of significant crop failures. Doug Richardson, the lead author, emphasized the vulnerability of coffee trees to climate change, stating that the optimal conditions for coffee production are being disrupted. The study warns that by 2050, the coffee-growing area may decrease by 50% due to these changing climate conditions.

A group of Australian scientists believe that coffee production in various parts of the world is affected by negative factors associated with global climate change. This conclusion was reached by experts from the State Association of Scientific and Applied Research (CSIRO), as well as the National Science Agency of Australia and the University of South Queensland in a report released by them on Friday. Due to climate change from 1980 to 2020, natural disasters have become much more frequent in the top 12 coffee-growing regions, according to scientists. "Since 1980, global coffee production has been at increased risk of crop failures that could affect multiple regions at the same time," Doug Richardson, lead author of the study, said in a statement. The scientist clarified that ...
