Coffee could disappear off Irish shelves by 2050 due to climate change, Fairtrade Ireland has warned.
The charity explained that coffee beans, cocoa and other foods grown in hotter climates may become extremely rare and expensive treats within the next three decades.
“We could be looking at the end of the much-loved cup of coffee,” Fairtrade Ireland’s Executive Director, Peter Gaynor said at the launch of their annual Fairtrade Fortnight event in the Mansion House.
