Climate change has started reaching our plate and pockets. Researchers said that due to climate change, there is a record breaking rain, while some places are facing a severe drought or famine. Its biggest impact is on farming.
How is farming being affected?
The biggest impact of climate change is falling badly on farming happening worldwide. Due to low farming, the price of grains, fruits and vegetables is being increased. If the weather continues to deteriorate in the same way, then in the coming times, poor countries will be struggling with malnutrition, political problem and disturbance in society.
What is the rise in the price of things?
The joint study of Britain’s Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit, European Central Bank, Food Foundation and Potsdam Institute for Climate Employees took the data of 18 countries between 2022 and 2024 in the joint study of 18 countries, in which it was found that the cost of eating things was found to have increased the price of food, dry and rain. Research showed that the price of potatoes in Britain, cabbage in South Korea and cocoa in Ghana in South Korea, increased rapidly. The reason for this was unusual weather.
What is difficult to do farming?
Climate Change has made farming challenging. Crops are wasted due to drought for a long time. The floods that come with strong flow takes out the ovary with them. After this, only such land remains at that place on which farming becomes a very difficult task. After this, due to lack of grain and inflation, it is also difficult for families to bear the cost of basic nutrition.
Potato-onion is also threatened?
It was also found in this research that by June 2024, onion and potato prices in India increased by 89 percent as compared to 2022. The condition of other countries is also here. Please tell that when the price of bread was increased in Mozambique, people came out on the streets. Researcher Maximilian Kotz said that, when food items are expensive, the poor get less nutrition which affects health.
