At approximately 1.5°C of global warming (2030), climate change is expected to be a poverty multiplier that makes poor people poorer and increases the poverty head count (Hallegatte et al., 2016; Hallegatte and Rozenberg, 2017) <sup>[[#fn:r1073|1073]]</sup> . Poor people might be heavily affected by climate change even when impacts on the rest of population are limited. Climate change alone could force more than 3 million to 16 million people into extreme poverty, mostly through impacts on agriculture and food prices (Hallegatte et al., 2016; Hallegatte and Rozenberg, 2017) <sup>[[#fn:r1074|1074]]</sup> . Unmitigated warming could reshape the global economy later in the century by reducing average global incomes and widening global income inequality (Burke et al., 2015b) <sup>[[#fn:r1075|1075]]</sup> . The most severe impacts are projected for urban areas and some rural regions in sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia.
