Coffee, wine and even chocolate could be permanently off the menu due to global warming, warns a new study.

Climate intervention may not be enough to secure the future of grape, coffee and cacao crops in the face of rising global temperatures, say scientists.

The crops are vital to many economies and provide livelihoods for farmers worldwide.

But they are increasingly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, according to the study published in the journal Environmental Research Letters .

Rising temperatures and changing patterns of rainfall cause big variations in crop yields from year to year, meaning that farmers cannot rely on the stability of their harvest, and their produce is at risk.

The researchers specifically investigated Stratospheric Aerosol Inject
