Climate change is bad news for tea drinkers CHRISTIAN AID
Richard Koskei, a tea farmer from Kericho, Kenya
BRITAIN’s beloved daily cup of tea is under threat as climate change intensifies, affecting the world’s prime tea-growing regions, including Kenya and India, a new report from Christian Aid suggests.
Not only will supplies of tea be reduced as a result of poor crop yields, says the report,
Reading the Tea Leaves: Climate change and the British cuppa, but the flavour and health benefits of tea will reduce, too. Increased rainfall overwhelms plantations and produces poor-quality leaves. The result is tasteless tea, which is also lower in the anti-inflammatory compounds that provide health benefits to drinkers.
UK tea industry calls for climate targets to protect largest producer Kenya The calls come as a new report from UK charity Christian Aid warned that climate change is forecast to slash Kenya’s optimal tea growing regions by 26% by 2050.
Climate change is affecting the world’s four largest tea producing countries: Kenya, China, India and Sri Lanka, the report said. Kenya alone produces half the tea drunk in UK and is the world’s biggest exporter, but the country’s medium level tea growing regions are set to decrease by 39%, according to the charity, as the country faces a host of climate related impacts such as rising temperatures, erratic rainfall, droughts and new insect infestations.

Climate change is set to destroy 26.2% of Kenya’s optimal tea-growing areas by 2050, where half of UK tea imports come from.
That is according to a new report from the charity Christian Aid, which states that rising temperatures, erratic rainfall, droughts and insect infestations are to blame.
Christian Aid has stated that in 2017 the UK imported 125,810 tonnes of tea, with 62,222 tonnes coming from Kenya; making it the world’s largest exporter of black tea.
