Prices for popular consumer goods such as chocolates and wine will shoot up because of the sever climate change in Australia.
In a report titled "Appetite for Change," climate scientists Richard Eckard and David Karoly from the University of Melbourne explain the effects of Australia's rapidly changing weather.
Due to the warming oceans, extreme drought and unexpected rainstorms, the food supply from the continent will be severely impacted, according to Echo.
The report lists several popular household food items that are currently or will be affected if the climate change continues.
Eckard said that not only will the price shoot up for food loved by everyone such as wine, chocolates and beer, their taste will also change.
Chocolate might not be the same if the supply chain to produce them will be affected. Dairy items, especially milk, might also spike in prices as the supply goes down. The report stated that cows will be stressed from the extreme heat, resulting in reduced yields by up to 40 percent.
Wine, one of the world's most consumed alcoholic beverage, will also be significantly affected as it is the largest fruit industry in Australia, according to Market Business News.
Some of the finest grapes are grown from South Australia's Riverland and Barossa regions, Western Australia's Margaret River and Victoria's Sunraysia.
Some of the worst affected wine grape classes include Merloz, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, one of the most famous red wine varieties.
The scientists are aiming to increase awareness on the issue and are hoping for a unified continued action to battle climate change not only in Australia, but also across the globe.
"It makes you appreciate that global warming is not a distant phenomenon but a very real occurrence that is already affecting the things we enjoy in our everyday lives, including the most common of foods we eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner," said Eckard.
