RT @PGDynes: Spain's farms are dying. Their pastures are disappearing. Their livestock is becoming too expensive to even feed. Their ministers resort to calling for the EU crisis mechanism to be triggered. The #Climate crisis is now an EU farming and food supply crisis. https://t.co/bmAWN7IBho

Ja, das stimmt.
@parholmgren
It's beginning to look like Spain might become the first “Western" country to fail because of climate change.
It's going to require a herculean effort to adapt.
@parholmgren Just Murcia produces ~2.5 million tons of produce. Almería is another one. Three of the main countries that fruit and vegetable products from Almería are exported to are the Netherlands (13.55%), France (13.5%) and the UK (11.4%).
Almería exports 322,600 tonnes of fruit and vegetable produce, representing 9.2% of the total from Spain.
As you we’ll say, the impact is going to be huge… for everyone. This is far from a “Spanish problem.”
@parholmgren
Predictable and predicted.
And for too many in Central and Northern Europe it hasn't even sunk in that this affects /their/ food prices too.
