Countries most vulnerable to fossil fuel phaseout generate just 6% of global output, climate analysis finds
A study by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) reveals that countries highly vulnerable to fossil fuel phaseouts account for only 6% of global economic output. This finding highlights that regions like Africa, with abundant solar energy potential, could benefit significantly from climate policies. The research also shows that the U.S., Europe, and China face similar geopolitical challenges and opportunities due to climate action.
