The blurred image of a barcode on a white background in the image you sent suggests the difficulty of measuring the impact of climate change on poverty. Climate change is a complex phenomenon with far-reaching consequences, and its impact on poverty is difficult to isolate from other factors, such as economic growth, inequality, and conflict.

Despite the challenges, there are a number of ways to measure the impact of climate change on poverty. One approach is to look at the impact of climate-related shocks, such as droughts, floods, and storms, on household incomes and livelihoods. Another approach is to examine the long-term effects of climate change on agricultural productivity, food security, and human health.

A recent World Bank study estimated that between 32 million and 132 million additional people will be pushed into extreme poverty by 2030 due to climate change. The study found that the poorest people are the most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, as they have fewer resources to cope with shocks and less access to adaptation measures.
