Study: Climate Change Affects Nutrition in Basic Foods, Strips Off Zinc, Iron And Protein

IBT: Not only will climate change affect the temperaments of weather patterns, it elevates sea levels and hampers crop production, the rising levels of carbon dioxide are also bound to affect the nutritional value and content of basic foods. Researchers at Harvard University found the rising levels of CO2 are affecting human nutrition as it reduces the levels of very essential nutrients in very important food crops such as zinc, iron and protein. The world's most important food crops are rice, wheat...
Rising CO2 Lowers Nutrition Value Of Crops

Redorbit: Grains, legumes and other crops that provide a large percentage of the world with most of their dietary zinc and iron will have dramatically reduced concentrations of those nutrients by 2050 due to rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide, according to a new study led by Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH). The researchers studied multiple varieties of wheat, rice, field peas, soybeans, maize and sorghum grown in fields with atmospheric carbon dioxide levels comparable to those expected...

Rising CO2 levels threaten human nutrition, study says
2014-05-08 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
CBC: When carbon dioxide in the atmosphere reaches levels anticipated for the middle of this century, some staple crops that many of the worlds poorest people depend upon for sustenance will become less nutritious, new research suggests. In a study led by the Harvard University School of Public Health and published Wednesday in the journal Nature, an international team of scientists found that iron and zinc concentrations were substantially reduced in wheat, rice, soybean and pea crops when they were...

Swelling CO2 Cut Nutrition in Food
2014-05-08 09:27:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ClimateWire: A carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere could strip important food crops of their nutrients, a new study suggests. Wheat, rice, barley and certain legumes like soybeans are classified as C3 plants, which corresponds to their ability as plants to convert carbon dioxide into energy. These C3 grasses and legumes have been shown to lose up to 15 percent of zinc and iron, the top two minerals in the human body, in experiments that artificially enhanced the concentration of carbon dioxide. These elements are...
