Summary

Description
English: Cumulative global warming-related damages caused by countries' emissions (includes both fossil fuel emissions and land use emissions). Figures are rounded to nearest whole number, represented by a square.
  • Data source for 1990-2020 panel: Fig. 4 of (25 March 2026). "Quantifying climate loss and damage consistent with a social cost of carbon". Nature 651: 959-966. DOI:10.1038/s41586-026-10272-6.
  • Data source for 1960-2020 panel: Fig. S5 of Nature portfolio / Supplementary information / Quantifying climate loss and damage consistent with a social cost of carbon. Nature 28 (25 March 2026). Archived from the original on 6 April 2026. "Same as Figure 4 except valuing damages from emissions starting in 1960 rather than 1990."
  • Suggested caption, based on source: Non-linear growth in the global warming effect of accumulating long-lived greenhouse gases contributed to economic damage over a 60-year period estimated to be over five times as large as that of a 30-year period (shown in chart). A 2026 Nature article estimated future damages from past emissions to be at least an order of magnitude larger than historical damages from the same emissions.[Nature source]
