Description
Brazilian coffee producer Moacir Donizetti first smelled the smoke, and then watched in desperation as a blaze consumed his family coffee plantation last year.
The 54-year-old was one of hundreds of farmers hit by a brutal forest fire in Sao Paulo state, where years of soaring heat and erratic rains are set to drive up the cost of an espresso or latte far afield in Paris, New York or Tokyo.
Brazil, the world's largest coffee producer and exporter, experienced its hottest year on record in 2024 and a record number of forest fires. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES ARRANGED IN SEQUENCES N°36TZ8AL
