"World Wildlife Fund report reveals for the first time the countries whose economies would be worst affected over the next 30 years if the world doesn't act urgently to address the global environmental crisis.
The study, Global Futures, which calculated the economic cost of nature's decline across 140 countries ranging from India to Brazil, shows that if the world carries on with “business as usual,” the United States would see the largest losses of annual GDP in absolute terms, with $83 billion wiped off its economy each year by 2050 - an amount equivalent to the entire annual GDP of Guatemala."
