Study Warns of €126 Billion Economic Toll From Europe's 2025 Extreme Weather
A team of researchers, including Dr. Sehrish Usman from the University of Mannheim and economists from the European Central Bank, has published a sobering study on the economic impact of extreme weather events in Europe. The analysis, covering the summer of 2025, reveals a staggering total cost of 126 billion euros by 2029.
The study, conducted between June and August 2025, focused on the EU-wide impacts of heatwaves, droughts, and floods. It estimated both direct and indirect costs, painting a grim picture of the financial toll these events can take.
The summer of 2025 was particularly harsh, with severe weather events causing widespread damage. The researchers' findings underscore the urgent need for climate action and preparedness measures to mitigate such losses in the future.
The total estimated cost of 126 billion euros by 2029 serves as a stark reminder of the economic consequences of extreme weather events. The study, led by Dr. Sehrish Usman and ECB economists, highlights the importance of robust climate policies and investment in resilience to protect European economies from such devastating impacts.
