Climate change is major obstacle to continued poverty reduction
Warmer temperature affects poor families income and their food chain where they are heavily dependent on farming.
Falling farmer incomes will increase poverty and reduce the ability of households to invest in a better future. (poverty trap)
Climate change is likely to increase illness and death rates in developing countries.
At national level, Climate shocks cause setbacks to economic and social development in developing countries today – even with temperature increase of less than 1°C.
