According to this report, economic damage from climate change on Lebanon could reach more than 80 billion USD in 2040, if the world does not implement quick and serious measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Lebanese government will bear around 26 billion USD from this economic damage in 2040, according to the assumptions adopted in the study, whereas the Lebanese households will each bear around 60 thousand USD in the same year. Introduction 2. Conceptual framework 2.1. Overview of the effects of global GHG emissions on climate 2.2. Overview of potential climate change impacts on Lebanon 2.3. Analytical assumptions and approach 3. The overall economic costs that future global GHG emissions might impose on Lebanon 3.1. Potential costs from cumulative global GHG emissions 3.2. Potential costs from annual global GHG emissions 3.3. Potential savings if global GHG emissions slow to the IPCC’s lowest- emissions scenario 3.4. Potential costs borne by rural and urban households with different levels of income 4. Costs that climate change might impose on segments of Lebanon’s economy and society 4.1. Costs from impacts of climate change on agriculture and food consumption 4.1.1. Reductions in Lebanon’s overall agricultural production 4.1.2. Reductions in production of wheat and maize 4.1.3.
