Bees Help Coffee Against Climate Change

A recent study was published analyzing how coffee would be affected in the world's largest coffee-producing region: Latin America. The good news is that the diversity of bee species will help compensate for the plant's lack of adaptability to climate change through pollination. The latest issue of the prestigious scientific journal PNAS published a multinational study led by the International Center for Tropical Agriculture that computationally modeled the current and future distribution of coffee and its associated pollinators under different climate change scenarios that could arise in Latin America.
