Climate change could wipe 40% off global economy, study predicts: models often contain a fundamental flaw Most prior research predicts that even extreme warming of 4°C will have only mild negative impacts on the global economy by the end of the century – between 7 percent and 23 percent. Such modelling is usually based on the effects of weather shocks in the past. However, these shocks have typically been confined to a local or regional scale, and balanced out by conditions elsewhere.they assume a national economy is affected only by weather in individual countries. — 2 April 2025 (LINK)

— Most prior research predicts that even extreme warming of 4°C will have only mild negative impacts on the global economy by the end of the century — between 7% and 23%. Such modelling is usually based on the effects of weather shocks in the past. However, these shocks have typically been confined to a local or regional scale, and balanced out by conditions elsewhere. But future climate change will increase the risk of weather shocks occurring simultaneously across countries and more persistently over time.

— "We found if the Earth warms by more than 3°C by the end of the century, the estimated harm to the global economy jumped from an average of 11% (under previous modelling assumptions) to 40% (under our modelling assumptions). This level of damage could devastate livelihoods in large parts of the world." — Timothy Neal, Senior lecturer in Economics / Institute for Climate Risk and Response, UNSW Sydney.
