“Do You Love These Foods? They Might Vanish Forever—Find Out Why!”
Worldwide production of these legumes has gone down nearly 50% due to droughts all across the globe, and by that rate, hummus may become a thing of the past. It’s unfortunate because they’re so healthy for you.
Coffee
70% of the world’s coffee could be wiped out by 2080. Most coffee is made from Arabica beans, which grow best between 64F and 70F. If the temperature rises above that, the plants ripen too quickly, which affects the taste of the coffee.
If the temperatures keep rising because of climate change, the coffee yield and quality are going to decrease. So, savor your morning cup while it lasts because you might have to get used to tea later in life.
Bananas
The Cavendish banana, the one that is loved in North America, is being taken over by a disease called Tropical Race 4. This disease affects the vascular system of the banana plant which means they can’t properly absorb water and nutrients.
The disease is quickly spreading across continents, wiping out banana plantations. Why is it that the best fruits and vegetables are going extinct? I guess we’ll still have our sweets.
Fish
We’re killing fish, and we’re killing them FAST. At the rate we’re going, researchers say there will be no more eatable fish in the ocean by 2048.
This is due to overfishing, and destructive fishing practices, like trawling, which uses a weighted net to scoop up all the fish that come its way. Often times that means that endangered fish are caught and killed too. It created a deadly cycle under the sea.
