There's no denying that the seasons are out of whack. Besides affecting our moods and making us complain more, the weird weather will inevitably affect our food.
Agriculture requires very specific environmental conditions, and when these conditions aren't met, the agriculture suffers. As a result, we may not be able to enjoy some of our favorite foods for much longer.
Here are some that may go extinct in our lifetime due to climate change.

Avocados
It takes 72 gallons of water to make just one pound of avocados — that's just about two medium-sized avocados! And to put 72 gallons of water into perspective, that's about how much water is used in four average American showers.
It just so happens that more than 80% of America's avocados are grown in California, where there's a drought. This means that growing avocados is becoming both more expensive and more difficult. Charley Wolk, an avocado farmer, told Grub Street, "The avocado’s native environment is tropical, and we’re growing them in a desert."
Chickpeas
Similarly, it takes 76 gallons of water to make just one ounce of chickpeas (a can of chickpeas is 15 ounces).
Worldwide production of these legumes has gone down 40 to 50 percent due to droughts all across the globe, and by that rate, hummus may become a thing of the past.
Coffee
70 percent of the world's coffee could be wiped out by 2080, according to CBC News.
Most coffee is made from Arabica beans, which grow best between 64 F and 70 F. If the temperature rises above that, the plants ripen too quickly, which affects the taste of the coffee.
As the temperatures keep rising thanks to climate change, coffee yield and quality are decreasing.
