Global GDP loss from climate change impacts 2015
Global GDP loss from climate change impacts 2015
Change of GDP due to negative climate change impacts worldwide in 2015 (in trillion U.S. dollars)
This statistic displays the damage to global GDP from the negative effects of climate change based on temperature rise as of 2015. During this time, a 2.5 degree Celsius increase in temperature has the potential to cause a 44 trillion U.S. dollar change in GDP. To have a 50 percent chance of reaching the 2 degree Celsius temperature warming goal, globally there is 1,050 gigatons left to burn.
