This study examines how Geographical Indications (GIs) adapt to climate change, focusing on the frequency, types, and drivers of amendments to product specifications. Using data from the European Commission’s eAmbrosia database (2000–2023) and Copernicus climate data, the analysis identifies links between rising temperatures and GI adaptations, particularly in Southern Europe. Temporary amendments address immediate climate impacts, while permanent changes often reflect innovation and sustainability efforts. Highlighting the role of producer consortia, the findings reveal the dual challenges of maintaining tradition and fostering resilience. This research offers insights for aligning GI strategies with global sustainability goals and market competitiveness.
