John Abatzoglou - Advantages of Climate Change on Coffee - The Daily Coffee Pro Podcast #1065
This is the 4th in a 5-part series on The Daily Coffee Pro Podcast by Map It Forward with first-time guest John Abatzoglou. John is a Professor of Climatology at the University of California Merced.
In this series of the podcast, host Lee Safar and guest John will discuss the Impact of climate change on the coffee supply chain.
In this episode John and Lee discuss the impact of climate change on coffee agriculture and explore how rising CO2 levels could potentially enhance plant growth, offering some offset to declining yields due to warmer temperatures.
The episode also speculates on the possible emergence of new coffee-growing areas due to reduced freeze events, though this comes with its own set of challenges such as displacement of current crops and the need for adaptation.
The topic of innovation in the face of climate change is emphasized, suggesting that the coffee industry will be compelled to find new solutions in agriculture, energy, water management, and labor, due to the complex nature of its supply chain and the static price of coffee over the last 30 years.
