More than 100 million
people will die by 2030 because of global warming, and the global GDP will disappear
by 3.2%. These data are presented in the report on the impact of climate change
on humanity, humanitarian organization DARA prepared for the government of 20
developing countries.
Increase in the average
temperature due to greenhouse gas emissions will lead to the melting of
glaciers. Of natural disasters and drought, and rising sea levels will deprive
millions of people's livelihood, experts warn.
Each year from air
pollution, hunger and disease as a result of climate change and the burning of
hydrocarbons killed five million people. And if current trends continue, by
2030 this figure will increase to six million, the report said.
More than 90% of deaths
related to climate change, will be in developing countries, experts calculated.
The poorest nations of the world will face an increased risk of droughts, water
shortages, crop failures, poverty and disease. "The climate crisis and a
hydrocarbon, presumably, will take to the end of the next decade to 100 million
people," - said in a report.
Affect by climate
change and the global economy. Industrial production will decline annually by
1.6%, or $ 1.2 trillion a year. By 2030, the loss will be doubled, and in 2100
to exceed 10%. In this case, the rejection of hydrocarbons will cost 0.5% of
world GDP by the end of this decade, experts DARA.
Losses cannot be
avoided, even the strongest economies in the world. GDP in the United States
and China, due to global warming could shrink in 2030 by 2.1%, and India's
economy - by 5%, the scientists warn.
Recall another downbeat
report on global warming, published recently, researchers from the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Research conducted by Professor Paul
O'Brien Gormanom and his colleagues have shown that an increase in mean annual
temperature by one degree will trigger growth in rainfall in the equatorial
region of 10%. This will cause catastrophic flooding in fairly densely
populated areas.
