An article published by the World Economic Forum (WEF) today, titled “Bad news for pasta lovers: the effect of climate change on food staples,” claims climate change is threatening the supply of staple crops, including coffee beans and crops that are ingredients for pasta. Data from the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), however, clearly show consistent increases in crop production – including these staple crops – with new records being set nearly every year.
“A new report warns that climate change may sharply reduce yields of staple crops by 2050,” writes the WEF, citing a report published by Chatham House. “Yields of staple crops could ultimately decline by nearly a third by the year 2050, according to the report, if governments don’t ramp up commitments made under the Paris Agreement.
The WEF singles out coffee, corn, and wheat for special attention, predicting production will decline dramatically unless sharp cuts are made in carbon dioxide emissions.
