Beer is not exempt from the consequences associated with climate change either .beverage in the world, but the heat and drought threaten barley crops, the main ingredient. In this way, there is a growing difficulty for the production of beer, which will inevitably cause its price to rise.

European countries, the most affected A study led by the University of Peking (China) and East Anglia (United Kingdom), published in the journal Nature Plants , has revealed that the harmful effects of climate change will reduce production yields by between 3% and 17%. barley worldwide . Droughts and high temperatures mobile number list are the main causes and will not only affect the exploitation of this ingredient.
