VOICED : Cambio climatico amenaza cultivos de cafe en Latinoamerica

The video discusses the impact of climate change on coffee production in Latin America, highlighting that rising temperatures and altered rainfall patterns could affect up to 88% of suitable coffee-growing areas. While some countries like Colombia and Mexico may adapt due to higher altitudes, others like Honduras and Nicaragua face greater challenges. The social impact is significant, as 80% of coffee comes from small producers. The study, supported by the International Center for Tropical Agriculture and Conservation International, emphasizes the need for adaptation strategies to sustain the region's coffee production, which totals around 5 billion kilos annually.
