Climate change threatens Europe’s prized white truffles
Rising temperatures and shifting rainfall linked to climate change are putting Europe’s white truffle harvest at risk, according to new reporting. White truffles, among the world’s most expensive delicacies and largely gathered in Italy’s Piedmont region and parts of Croatia and France, depend on specific soil and autumn weather conditions that are becoming less reliable, raising concern among foragers, chefs and rural economies that rely on the crop.
Why now: New reporting highlights a warming climate endangering one of Europe’s most valuable and culturally prized food products.
