As of August 2025, the most affected items putting upward pressure on inflation are Butter, milk, beef & veal, chocolate, and coffee. Prices for these climate-impacted foods rose by an average of +15.6% compared with August 2024. For other food and non-alcoholic drink items, the average rise was just +2.8%.
This indicates that increases in commodity prices are having a major impact on current food price inflation, which cannot be explained by domestic policies such as a higher minimum wage.
Although not the only factor driving an increase in these commodity prices, extreme weather made more likely by climate change is having a distinct impact on prices for these products.
These five product categories make up only 11% of the basket of food and drink used by the ONS to measure inflation. Yet they accounted for 0.21 percentage points of the 3.8% August CPI inflation rate.
By contrast, the remaining 89% of food and drink items contributed 0.36 points. This means that, on a weighted basis, these foods are driving inflation at more than four times the rate of other items.
These foods account for 1.9 percentage points of the 5.1% rate seen across the average consumer food basket. The remaining nine tenths of the basket account for 3.2 points. •
This suggests upward pressures on the prices of these products, including extreme weather made worse by climate change, are having a bigger impact on current food price inflation than domestic policy changes, a finding counter to a lot of recent reporting.

The 2026 Data Law Trends report reveals a world in which businesses confront an increasingly complex, multi-polar regulatory environment.
Data law has become a global fault line: divergent rules, intensifying enforcement and competing agendas across jurisdictions are fracturing what businesses once considered predictable.
From the expansion of AI oversight to new limits on data transfers, child privacy regulations and cybersecurity guardrails, the legal landscape is evolving rapidly – and no market is immune.
Where change is accelerating, old assumptions no longer hold. Many businesses are discovering that yesterday’s compliance playbooks won’t work in today’s multi-polar environment. Data laws are shaping everything from risk management to growth opportunities, and staying ahead of these shifts is critical.
This year’s developments build on last year’s momentum but come with new urgency. Enforcement is more aggressive, regulatory silos are breaking down and issues – from algorithmic fairness to cross-border data flows and content safety – are broader than ever.
Inside, you will find:
This report is your early warning system, your trend-map and your strategic briefing rolled into one. It helps you see what’s coming, understand what matters and respond effectively.
The next chapter of data law is being written.
