Will
the
world
run
out
of
chocolate
by
2050
?
Due
to
rising
temperatures
and
environmental
dangers
,
chocolate
production
is
set
to
become
endangered
in
the
next
30
years
.
As
the
information
superhighway
,
the
internet
,
becomes
more
and
more
accessible
,
the
spread
of
seems
to
have
become
an
epidemic
lately
.
In
the
case
of
the
news
,
which
recently
went
viral
about
the
world
of
chocolate
by
2050
,
the
reporters
the
headline
in
order
to
it
and
get
people
to
read
the
article
.
The
world
is
not
going
to
run
out
of
chocolate
in
the
next
few
years
,
but
if
the
Earth's
temperature
continues
to
rise
,
the
crops
in
Africa
will
likely
be
reduced
by
area
and
could
become
more
susceptible
to
diseases
and
funguses
.
While
this
is
definitely
a
for
chocoholics
worldwide
,
they
can
rest
assured
knowing
that
preventive
measures
are
being
taken
to
prevent
catastrophic
losses
due
to
rising
temperatures
.
Ghana
and
Côte
d'Ivoire
are
the
leading
producers
of
cacao
currently
,
providing
over
50%
of
the
world's
chocolate
.
However
,
cacao
is
also
produced
in
Australia
,
South
America
,
India
,
and
the
Caribbean
?
so
there
is
no
need
to
panic
just
yet
.
Rising
temperatures
are
not
solely
the
reason
for
endangered
crops
.
Lack
of
updating
cultivation
methods
have
also
caused
a
decline
in
cacao
production
in
West
Africa
.
Farmers
are
considering
moving
their
crops
further
north
into
the
mountains
,
which
is
currently
preserved
for
wildlife
.
But
moving
the
crops
and
farms
to
the
mountains
could
destroy
ecosystems
that
are
already
under
threat
from
illegal
farming
and
.
So
,
why
not
increase
cacao
production
in
the
other
countries
?
That
is
a
possibility
,
but
South
American
cacao
crops
,
for
example
,
have
been
with
a
fungus
for
decades
.
Scientists
have
been
working
on
editing
or
modifying
the
plant
DNA
in
order
to
make
it
more
resistant
to
disease
and
fungus
using
a
method
called
CRISPR
.
Jennifer
Doudna
,
the
UC
Berkeley
geneticist
who
invented
CRISPR
,
originally
created
the
gene
editing
technology
to
help
eradicate
human
diseases
,
prompting
the
ethical
debate
about
parents
creating
via
genetic
modification
.
She
and
her
team
of
research
scientists
have
teamed
up
with
the
American
candy
maker
,
Mars
,
to
help
cacao
survive
and
thrive
in
higher
temperatures
and
drier
climates
using
her
gene
editing
techniques
.
If
her
team's
work
is
successful
,
this
could
also
eliminate
the
need
for
West
African
farmers
to
relocate
their
cacao
crops
further
north
into
the
mountains
.
In
addition
,
it
could
help
cacao
to
be
grown
in
other
areas
of
the
world
where
the
conditions
are
not
ideal
for
production
.
Why
are
reporters
trying
to
create
panic
in
the
hearts
of
chocolate
lovers
across
the
globe
,
causing
people
to
buy
t
-
shirts
that
say
,
"
Save
our
planet
!
It's
the
only
one
with
chocolate
!
"
?
There
could
be
a
few
reasons
,
they
may
have
a
genuine
ecological
concern
for
the
future
of
cacao
crops
and
the
production
of
chocolate
.
However
,
it
is
possible
that
they
are
warning
us
that
if
the
crops
are
diminished
,
the
price
of
the
world's
favorite
candy
will
increase
?
the
economic
law
of
supply
and
demand
.
Regardless
of
their
reasons
,
chocolate
lovers
do
not
need
to
start
stockpiling
chocolate
as
if
a
chocalypse
(
chocolate
apocalypse
)
were
.
Our
planet
is
safe
for
now
,
and
we
can
still
get
our
chocolate
fix
.
