- 2015 May 1, Sam Jones, “Coffee catastrophe beckons as climate change threatens arabica plant”, in The Guardian[1]:
- Arabica, which has long been prized for its delicate and aromatic flavour, accounts for 70% of the global coffee market share. But it is particularly sensitive to temperature increases, which reduce its growth, flowering and fruiting and make it more susceptible to coffee pests.
