Climate change could reduce France's Gross Domestic Product by 3.6% by 2050, according to a note from the French Ministry of Economy. This reduction will occur if adaptation measures and greenhouse gas emission reduction measures are not strengthened.
The French executive's document also warns that climate change could worsen the country's public deficit by 1.8 points of GDP by 2050, which represents a significant impact on the country's public finances.
According to the information provided, the impact on public finances will depend on the global warming trajectory and the adaptation policies that are implemented, highlighting the importance of preventive actions to mitigate these economic effects.
