Question

how does climate change make people poorer?
A new report from the world bank finds that the poorest people are more exposed to climate related shocks such as floods, droughts and heat waves than those with average incomes
Poor people also lose much more of their wealth when they are hit, the report said.
Here are some facts and figures on why and how that happens:
The biggest impact of climate change on poverty comes through agriculture.
Climate change threatens global crop yield losses as large as 5 percent in 2030 and 30 percent in 2080, models show.
The next strongest drivers of climate linked poverty are health effects such as higher incidences of malaria, diarrhoea and stunting, and lower labour productivity due to extreme heat.
Climate change could add 12 percent to 2030 food prices in africa, where food consumption of poorest households amounts to over 60 percent of their total spending.
