💕Did your sweetheart get you sweet treats for ❣️🍫 Chocolate itself has a sweet spot, but it could be getting too hot for the cacao plant in West Africa, the biggest producer of cocoa. Climate Central found six additional weeks of extreme heat is being added to most growing locations, potentially playing a part in the quantity, quality, & cost of our chocolate.

⚡️🌤️🌎The weather & climate enterprise is changing fast. Between the rise of 🧠💻AI & 📲social media, the changing landscape of how we receive, perceive, & use forecast information is both exciting & daunting.
