   • 2015 May 1, Sam Jones, “Coffee catastrophe beckons as climate change threatens arabica plant”, in The Guardian‎^[1]:

     Arabica, which has long been prized for its delicate and aromatic flavour, accounts for 70% of the global coffee market share. But it is particularly sensitive to temperature increases, which reduce its growth, flowering and fruiting and make it more susceptible to coffee pests.

3. Coffee made from these coffee beans.
