# Food is profoundly affected by climate change.

#Climate change hits our food production in four ways.
1.Temperature
2.Water
3.Carbon Dioxide
4.Extreme Weather

#Due to increase in temperature crops like maize, soybean, cotton are projected to increase at first then decrease sharply as the average temperature decreases

#due to increase in temperature there are fewer animal pregnancies, less milk production.
#More diseases is spread by insects. It has already happened in northern Europe as the region is warm blue tongue virus has killed more of the animals

# Climate change also affects water. Dry climate means less production. Water has a complicated relationship with crops. It's all about Right amount at right time. This may put 75 percent of crop production at risk.

# When there is extreme weather it leads to soil erosion.

#floods, drought, heat waves affect lifestyle at key moment's in development.
# The year 2011 was the most disastrous year with 16 major disaster and $69 billion in losses.
# Carbon dioxide also affects crop production.
