n the past, companies
that dominate the global coffee business have managed their supply risk by
diversifying their suppliers.
Now a quarter of production in Brazil, the largest producer
of high-quality Arabica coffee, is under direct threat from climate change, and
rising temperatures are expected to undermine the commercial viability of
Arabica coffee in many of the world’s coffee-growing regions.
In the next two decades, this systemic failure across many
regions will require companies to radically change their production models and
sourcing relationships.
Yes, the price of your favourite coffee will increase due to
climate change, but there is hope that the risks involved will change the
entire industry for the better.
