Chocolate and coffee will disappear ... and scientists are trying to intervene

If you are a fan of coffee or a lover of chocolate, you have to worry. Future scientific studies tell you that they are disappearing, especially with the alarming increase in droughts and the flooding of many agricultural areas around the world.

Cocoa, the staple of the c
hocolate industry, is threatened with extinction in 2050, due to major climate changes that have been taking place in the world for years, according to German DW. For more than four years, British scientists have been reporting bad news to coffee lovers and chocolate lovers in the world, citing the findings of a study on global climate change and global warming, published in the British newspaper The Times, It is especially broad that the study confirmed that in 70 years there will be no coffee or chocolate due to rapid change in climate.

The study did not address the coffee and chocolate in particular, but it came in the context of a comprehensive study of the impact of climate change on animals in all its branches, and plants of all kinds, including coffee plants and cocoa trees, which are commonly used in the production of chocolate, stressing that they are threatened with extinction in the coming years because of climate change, And that many common plants and trees may also disappear in the coming years. Corn crops will also be affected by global warming, while wheat will be vulnerable to heavy rainfall and palm oil and canola will also be depleted.

These studies and their results have come as a shock to coffee and chocolate lovers and fans, making them launch on Twitter, "Hashtaga", where chocolate lovers and lovers have already felt their sense of disappearing from the world. The tweets varied between earnest and wild, while other tweets went on to suggest alternatives to chocolate and how to reduce them if it actually happened and disappeared from the world.

Scientists are looking for a solution

Cacao plant, which may disappear from the world after nearly 40 years and at the maximum 70 According to the Times of America because of global warming and arid weather conditions, but according to information circulating, there are attempts to save them where scientists cooperate with the University of California with "March", the largest Companies make candy, try to save the crop before it is too late. Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, are trying to protect the cacao plant from extinction, relying on genetic engineering, where experts will benefit from substantial financial support from the company.

The Kaka tree produces seeds (or cocoa beans) from which all kinds of chocolate are made. These trees grow in a humid and warm climate and live within a limit of 20 degrees north and south of the equator. Their full height is about 7.5 meters. They produce leaves, flowers and fruits over The seasons of the year when these seeds are fermented and dried turn into commercially known cocoa beans. Most of the world's cocoa beans come from the West African coast, with Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire and Nigeria the largest producers, while Brazil is the largest producer in the Western Hemisphere.

The coffee tree is evergreen with red fruits in its maturity. The coffee tree grows naturally in the tropical climate, which is warm during the growing season, and is dry in the harvest season, and coffee today has many types.
