Climate Change Affecting Your Coffee

Climate change could lower the quality of your coffee

Studies have been shown and it now has been found that in Ethiopia which is the world's fifth-largest coffee producer could lose 60% of its land for coffee farming because of the climate change. With the warmer weather occurring over this past year the coffee quality has been decreasing, so coffee is poorer. So, this could be a big impact on Ethiopia economy and prices could drop on coffee there on anywhere in the world. So, in my opinion the climate change can have a big affect on everything in the world and we should be worried about the future ahead.

    This doesn't make sense, if the fifth-largest coffee producer is losing all this land due to climate change shouldn't the price of coffee increase?

      Well if you would look at the article it says since Ethiopia is the FIFTH- largest and a decline in supply would occur prices would drop. Prices would drop in the other major -exporting countries. Since it take consumer effects a lot longer to travel.

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
