Devastating heat. Debilitating droughts. Crippling frost. Extreme weather is creating nightmares for farmers around the world — and making food more expensive for Americans.
Arabica coffee futures have almost doubled over the past year to seven-year highs as Brazil grapples with frost conditions that have wiped out crops. Retail coffee prices will likely follow suit.
Sugar prices are also on the rise, driven up by the frost in Brazil as well as dry weather in the Dakotas and Red River Valley. Wheat, one of the most common food sources for the average diet, has surged to the highest level in nearly eight years amid soaring temperatures and droughts.
The food price spikes demonstrate how extreme weather, much of it caused by the climate crisis, is having a real-world impact on Americans. And climate scientists warn the fallout will only intensify from here.
"Climate change is coming right into our dining room tables," Cynthia Rosenzweig, adjunct senior research scientist at the Columbia University Earth Institute, told CNN Business.

We have always had extreme weather, nothing new.........................
My government is making my food more expensive. Just stop.

NOT what the science says.
Deflect blame away from the regime, as usual.
Farmers have always dealt with extreme weather, but have never had Joe Biden as president
This article is a gullibility test.
The only thing that is extreme these days is lefty propaganda.
There is a reason the do not teach history any more.

"Climate change is coming right into our dining room tables," Cynthia Rosenzweig
I have enough of these over-schooled, know-nothing freaks destroying and/or excusing the destruction of our country.
See, it used to be Global Warming. But damaging frosts have occurred. So ‘Global Warming’ is out. ‘Climate Change’ is in.
Ain’t science grand?
This is why NASA is not going to put men er humans on the Moon in 2024 or 2034 or 2044.
They filled the agency with brain dead idiots—fatal error.
Educated beyond their mental capacity.

There are plenty of others as well, but these give you all the tools you need to destroy AGW useful idiots.
More “climate crisis” propaganda, and the gullible may believe it.
Yeah, that’s right. The weather, the weather….that’s it.
Elon Musk may wind up doing it, just for fun.
The experts are saying it will be colder in December - and then because of climate change in June it will be hot again!
Actually the bottom line about weather attribution is that in hindsight, the “experts” can say a particular drought or flood in a particular place is “consistent” with human-forced climate change. However they never have the nerve to forecast a specific drought or flood in a specific place at a specific time. Because they can’t.
Not just science: ChiComs are buying our croplands.
