Did your festive break involve lots of chocolate? 🍫💝 If so, you're not alone...

This time of year 📆 is heavily associated with chocolate and its essential ingredient, the cocoa bean.

But, today, producers face a plethora of challenges in chocolate production, from global warming 🌎🌡️ to illegal mining and pests that reduce yields.

Fortunately, innovations are being tested in Ghana 🇬🇭 and Germany 🇩🇪 to save chocolate and make it fairer and more sustainable. ♻️

But, chocolate isn't the only pantry essential threatened by the climate crisis. 🚨

Coffee ☕️ is Europe's most popular drink. However, the coffee plant is a fragile crop that is struggling to adapt to climate change and as a result, it's estimated that half of the plantations currently operating could disappear by 2050.

In a bid to adapt to our changing climate, some producers are experimenting with new, more resistant varieties. Our film 'The Future of Coffee' follows those using more durable techniques that protect the environment, while simultaneously championing fair trade.
