THE COST OF GLOBAL WARMING

It is difficult to calculate the yearly cost of Global Warming. However, FEMA and NOAA keep track of what they call "Billion Dollar Disasters". And that data shows that as the climate changes, due to Global Warming, the frequency and intensity of such Disaster Events is increasing.

Here is a graph of Events Costs, in the US, per year & months:

And this graph (from NOAA) shows the number of Events per year & month:



And these are disasters that occurred in the USA. It does not show what is happening in other nations.
However, it is a fact that other nations are also experiencing Billion Dollar Disasters.

Examples from this month (Sept. 2023):
1. Greece just had a catastrophic flooding.
2. Hong Kong had, in one hour, the amount of rain it usually gets in a year.
3. England is having catastrophic flooding this month.
4. Libya just had a catastrophic flooding (thousands dead, 10,000 missing).
5. Many parts of Spain is having catastrophic flooding.

Here is a list of some of the countries that are having serious floods this year (2023):
In Europe;
   Greece, England, Turkey, Slovenia, Georgia, Romania, Kosovo, Italy, Bosnia, Bulgaria, & others.

In Asia;
   China, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Iran, Indonesia, South Korea, Bhutan, Afghanistan, Japan, Tajikistan, & others.

In Africa;
   Libya, Algeria, South Africa, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Somalia, Ethiopia, Sierra Leone, and others.

Therefore, I believe that the damage cost by floods, due to Global Warming, will be in the hundreds of Billions of dollars per year (world wide). And some years, it might exceed a trillion dollars.
