It's a treat.

It's a treat.

It's a treat.

I love a ribeye.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna pretend.

Anybody who tells you a ribeye doesn't taste good, I think is insane.

I just don't think they know what they're talking about.

But, like, that's okay.

We just can't eat giant portions, and we can't eat it all the time.

This is not some far-out future challenge.

Now, I wish I could tell you, you know, you're still going to have your dessert and everything is fine.

And in some ways, chocolate is faring the worst.

So you've never probably had a bite of chocolate that wasn't grown within about 10 degrees of the equator by smallholder farmers.

And there is not a single model that shows that if and when we hit two degrees, any of that region will be suitable for chocolate production.

It will be too dry and too hot.

And again, this year, chocolate prices are up by 50% because those production ecosystems have been hammered by drought and extreme weather.

Raise your hand if you've had a cup of coffee today or a cup of tea.

Oh yeah, I'm sorry, I know.

Much of coffee is grown, it's sort of in the valleys around mountainous areas, shade-grown coffee, and as it started to warm on the bottom of those mountains, it's just become simply too hot.

About 75 of the 124 wild varieties of coffee are on the verge of extinction right now.
