G20 CLIMATE RISK ATLAS
Impacts, policy, economics
This atlas collates scientific projections of climate impacts in the world’s richest countries over the coming years. The first study of its kind, the atlas finds that on a high-emissions pathway, climate impacts spiral to cause devastating damage across the G20.
Explore the details of how climate change will affect each country’s climate, coasts and waters, agriculture, forests, cities, the health of its population, energy and economy. Visit the research methodology section for further information about how this research was conducted.
This Atlas represents a science-based tool that can support decision-making processes and the planning of required policies. We believe that robust scientific knowledge must be available at an institutional and governance level to guarantee social and environmental resilience.Donatella Spano – CMCC Strategic Advisor, Chair G20 Climate Risk Atlas Scientific Committee
