Coffee and Climate Change: Snow in the Sahara and Heavy Rains in Costa Rica
It is mid-January and it's snowing in the Sahara, but there is still no sight of snow in Helsinki.

Rainfall has caused the coffee trees to bloom for several months too early, which has a negative effect on the coming crop.
