A new report shows where has wine production dried up the most in Europe.
Global wine production reached a historic low in 2023 and climate change could be to blame, a new report has revealed.
The International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) says the drink hit its lowest level since 1962. This intergovernmental organisation has 50 member states, representing 75 per cent of the world’s vineyard area.
Experts blame “extreme environmental conditions” including droughts and fires that have been driving the downward trend in production.
Good, fuck the wine industry. They take up all this land that could be natural habitat for a luxury product, and then force migrant farmers to work in the smoke during the fire season.
Hate to break it to you, but pretty much all of capitalist society is built upon the conditions you describe.
