Severe Climate Change Could Slash Global GDP by 25% by 2100
Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports on a University of Cambridge study showing that unchecked climate change could slash global per capita GDP by nearly 25% by 2100. While poorer, hotter countries face the steepest losses, wealthier nations like the U.S. and Canada could also see GDP declines approaching 30%. McIntyre emphasizes that the findings highlight the urgent need to meet Paris Agreement targets to avoid severe economic collapse.
