CLIMATE CHANGE IS ERASING BORDERS There is an article titled 'Bad Wheather Leads to a New Olive Oil', which portraits how climate change is forcing producers from the USA to team up with olive oil producers from other countries. An extremely cold winter affected 2017-2018 oil crops, leading to a poor harvest. Producers had to buy oil from countries like Argentina, Chile and Portugal, and blended them with their autochthonous oil, creating new products that could satisfy market demands. In order to avoid any region's characteristics dominate in their products, they made sure to combined them in equal proportions, but they subtle incremented the American oil proportion over the others by just one shade (1% more). Reasonably, the price of these new blended oil products is lower than those made of 100% American oil, which they keep producing to conserve their distinctive flavors and brands. This type of mutual contribution may not be uncommon among local producers. Since it can happen that a farmer has a bad harvest season and choose this type of association to save his business. In the same way, we may know products that are also made with ingredients from different countries. However, the fact of having to resort to other countries reserves to maintain their businesses sounds like a very expensive option to small producers. Nevertheless, one thing is certain, climate change may be forcing people from all over the world to work together, which I personally think, it would have helped to decrease world hunger a long time ago.

CLIMATE CHANGE IS ERASING BORDERS

There is an article titled 'Bad Weather Leads to a New Olive Oil', which discusses how climate change is forcing producers from the USA to team up with olive oil producers from other countries. 

An extremely cold winter affected oil crops in 2017-2018, leading to a poor harvest. Producers had to buy oil from countries like Argentina, Chile and Portugal, and blended them with their autochthonous oil, so as to create new products that could satisfy market demands. In order to avoid the dominance of any particular region in their products they made sure to combine them in equal proportions, however they subtly incremented the proportion of American oil, over the others, by 1%. 

Reasonably, the price of these new blended oil products is lower than those made of 100% American oil (which they are continuing to  produce, so as to conserve the distinctive flavor of their brand.) 

This type of mutual contribution is not  uncommon among local producers.  It may be that a farmer has a bad harvest one season and decides to choose this type of association to save his business. In the same way.  We may also know products that are made with ingredients from different countries. However, the fact of having to resort to other countries' reserves to maintain their businesses can be a very expensive option for small producers.

One thing is certain, climate change may be  is forcing people from all over the world to work together, which I personally think will help to decrease world hunger in the long run.
