The European Environment Agency updated its economic loss indicator for the period 1980-2024. Weather- and climate-related extremes caused economic losses of assets estimated at EUR 822 billion during 1980-2024 in the European Union, with over EUR 208 billion (25%) between 2021 and 2024. Climate-related extreme events are expected to intensify further and the adaptation pace is not following the same speed. Associated economic losses will likely continue to increase.
