Climate change is disrupting the UK food system at every stage, from farmers’ fields to our shopping baskets. Record breaking heat and flooding have hit farm incomes, emptied supermarket shelves and driven up the cost of staples including coffee, cocoa and olive oil. Between 2022 and 2023, climate impacts added an estimated £361 to the average household food bill

I'm not completely sure than many of the people most deeply affected by these events would see coffee, cocoa and olive oil as "staples".
That's not to underestimate the seriousness of the situation!
