☕️Coffee runs thru my veins, I need it, clearly 🫣 But prices have become more volatile, hitting record highs, in part due to extreme heat. @climatecentral.org found Brazil, the world’s top coffee producer, added 70 extra coffee harming heat days with #climatechange. #climatematters

🍫 Human-caused warming is bringing more extreme heat to West Africa, which produces 70% of the world’s cocoa, the key ingredient in chocolate. In growing regions of Côte d’Ivoire & Ghana (over half of global supply), heat above 90°F now occurs ~40 more days per year on average.

As the #WinterOlympics wrap up, the past two weeks highlight a growing challenge for the future of the Games. 🌡️ February temps ran 3.5–9°F above average 🔴 This unusual warmth is now more likely in conditions that have fundamentally shifted from the past due to climate change.
