In Uganda, robusta coffee production has been adversely affected by climate change, which has affected regional weather patterns. In recent years Uganda experienced drier conditions during the normal spring rainy season and early summer and experienced more severe and destructive rainfall at the end of the year. Floods, landslides and soil erosion are becoming more and more common, and Uganda's coffee crop is at risk of extinction if temperatures continue to rise.

The potential impact of global warming may have a significant impact on the geographical distribution of coffee belts. Even small changes in climate can catastrophically change the origin of coffee and have a serious impact on family farmers in developing countries and rural areas with limited economic development. Economies currently dependent on the sale and export of coffee beans are currently implementing mitigation and adaptation strategies to mitigate the impact of global warming on coffee production. For example, some farmers plant more shade trees to create cooler temperatures to grow coffee and cover the soil to retain moisture. The long-term effects of climate change and these potential adaptation strategies remain to be seen.
