Why this card
BBC Science reports experts studying how Scottish farmers could diversify crops as the climate shifts, with tea floated as one future option. I chose 2038 to give a new specialty crop roughly twelve years to establish and reach the cup. The picture shows that outcome directly: a Highland hillside terraced with tea bushes, picked under a cool grey sky.
