"Impacts, risks and adaptation in the United States Report-in-Brief"

Why this is important: The assessment posits the U.S. will lose 10 percent of its gross domestic product by the end of the century if no additional action is taken to curb climate change.

Countervailing studies put the loss of GDP at approximately 1 percent by the end of the century. - Hsiang et al. 2017.
