Arthur Booker+FollowWhy Figs Are Suddenly So PriceyEver noticed figs are missing from your grocery haul? Blame wild weather in Italy—unexpected frosts and heavy rain wiped out up to 70% of this season’s fig crop. Farmers are hurting, and if things don’t improve, they might ditch figs for something easier to grow. For us, that means higher prices and fewer figs for our cheese boards. It’s a reminder that climate swings can hit our snacks and wallets. Maybe time to try a new fruit or support local farmers at the market! #FoodShortage #ClimateImpact #FarmersLife #Business #Industry20Share
Alexandria Simmons+FollowWhy Your Mango Lassi Might Cost More SoonHeads up, mango lovers: India’s famous summer fruit is in trouble. Wild weather—think freak rain and weird heat—has wiped out a ton of mango crops in Karnataka. Local farmers are struggling, and some are switching to just one type of mango that’s good for juice. If this keeps up, your favorite mango varieties could disappear, and prices might spike. So, next time you sip a mango smoothie, remember: climate chaos is hitting our snacks, too! #MangoCrisis #ClimateImpact #FoodForThought #FarmersLife #FruitLovers #Business10Share
