Understanding the macroeconomic consequences of climate change is becoming essential as economies enter an era of rising physical climate uncertainty. Yet until recently, most assessments of climate-related macroeconomic damages remained largely global, providing limited insight into how impacts may differ across countries and regions.
In this webinar, Nicolas Schneider, Senior Research Engineer and Macroeconomist at the EDHEC Climate Institute, introduces EDHEC-CLIRMAP (Climate-Induced Regional Macroimpacts Projector) — the Institute’s latest tool designed to visualise and explore projected macroeconomic damages from physical climate risk at an unprecedented geographic resolution.
About EDHEC-CLIRMAP
EDHEC-CLIRMAP is the first interactive online platform offering a highly granular mapping of climate-induced macroeconomic impacts worldwide. It covers more than 3,660 subnational regions and spans 95% of global economic production, enabling users to explore how climate change could affect regional economic activity across the 21st century.
Built on cutting-edge research in macroeconomics, econometrics, and climate science, the platform translates academic findings into clear, transparent, and actionable insights for non-academic audiences, including investors and policymakers.
Explore regional projections across scenarios
The platform allows users to customise and compare projections across:
EDHEC-CLIRMAP provides a unique lens to analyse the heterogeneity of potential damages to gross regional products, highlighting how climate impacts may vary dramatically between regions.
