Strawberries - This savory fruit is endangered, particularly in the USA. More than 95% of strawberry supply is coming out of Florida and California. Like wine, hotter-than-usual weather in these states may impede production, and cause price increases.

Oranges - There is a nasty infection coming after this beloved fruit and it's called huanglongbing (or citrus greening disease). Discovered in 2005, the disorder causes citrus trees to turn fruit sour. There is no cure once a tree is infected by the disease.

Corn - Even a rise in temperature of just 1ºC (1.8ºF) can slow the growth rate of maize by 7%! Climate change has already begun to affect production. Around the world, corn production has decreased by close to 4%.

Cherries - Once more, rising temperatures have even affected the growth and production of cherries. Warm spells as early as February have wiped out entire crops in the USA.

Cranberries - Bees also pollinate fruits like cranberries so a decline in the population puts cranberries, among many other foods, in jeopardy.

Chickpeas - It takes an estimated 608.6 gallons of water to produce just eight ounces of chickpeas. Droughts around the world have drastically reduced the production of chickpeas by 40-50%.

Pumpkin - Extreme weather and climate change is heavily affecting yields of pumpkin crops. They'll either rot or premature.

Soybeans - Researches say that if we don't reduce our emissions, global warming will cause soybean crops (the most economically important beans on the planet) to decrease 40% by 2100.

Avocado - Hey millennials! Say adios to your avocado toast. In the US, this fruit is becoming increasingly difficult to grow, and it is expensive. Eighty percent of avocados are grown in California where there is a drought.

Peanuts - Entire peanut crops have been destroyed by extreme weather such as heat waves and droughts. Scientists believe this is one food that will become extinct sooner than we think.

Bread - Wheat in general may not survive the catastrophic climate changes so start prepping for a life without your favorite carb.

Beer - Water shortages caused by global warming are having an impact on the cool refreshment. Between 2030 and 2050, accessing freshwater will become rather difficult.
