On Greek island of Santorini, winemakers try to adapt to heat and drought

Winemakers on the Greek island of Santorini are grappling with the effects of rising temperatures and prolonged droughts, which are threatening their traditional vines. The once-resilient 'kouloura' vine, which had survived for 90 years, succumbed to the intense heat and water scarcity. These changes underscore the broader challenges posed by climate change to agriculture, particularly in wine production, and highlight the urgent need for innovative adaptation strategies to sustain local economies and cultural heritage.
