Cel: Zmiany klimatu i ich wpływ na system środowiskowy stwarzają znaczące zagrożenia dla globalnej gospodarki. Jednak większość teorii ekonomicznych nie bierze ich pod uwagę lub uwzględnia je w niewystarczającym stopniu. Ekonomia ekologiczna jest nową dziedziną nauki, która bada ryzyko wpływu zmian klimatu na globalną gospodarkę, ponieważ uważa się, że ekstremalne zjawiska pogodowe mogą mieć destrukcyjny potencjał dla przyszłego rozwoju gospodarczego. Materiały i metody badawcze: Niniejszy artykuł przeglądowy opiera się na podstawowym przeglądzie literatury kluczowych autorów w danej dziedzinie. Jako główne kryterium uwzględniono rok publikacji artykułów. Wyniki: Zagrożenia związane ze zmianami klimatu mają negatywny wpływ na światowy system gospodarczy. Kluczowym źródłem antropogenicznych zmian klimatu są przemysłowe emisje CO2. Branża logistyczna jest jednym z głównych czynników przyczyniających się do tych zmian. Skutki zmian klimatu są widoczne poprzez destrukcyjne zmiany w różnych systemach środowiskowych, materializujące się np. w utracie różnorodności biologicznej, zmianach w ukształtowaniu terenu, przesunięciach zasobów naturalnych i katastrofach naturalnych, stwarzając poważne zagrożenie stratami gospodarczymi i rosnącymi globalnymi nierównościami. Wnioski praktyczne: Niniejsze badanie przyczynia się do naszego zrozumienia bezpośredniego i intensywnego związku między skutkami zmian klimatu a lokalnym i globalnym rozwojem gospodarczym.

Background and Objective: Climate change and its impact on the environmental system poses significant risks on the global economy. Yet, most economic theories do not or insufficiently take these into account. Ecological economics is a new scientific field that looks into the risks of climate change impacts on the global economy as extreme weather events are believed to hold disruptive potential towards future economic developments. Study Design/ Materials and Methods: This review article is based on a primary literature review of key authors within the respective field. As main criteria the articles publication year has been considered. Results: Climate change risks negatively impact the world's economic system. Key sources of anthropogenic climate change are industrial CO emissions. The logistic industry is one of the major contributors. Impact of climate change are evident through disruptive changes in various environmental systems materializing in e.g. biodiversity loss, change in land, shifts of natural resources and natural catastrophes posing significant threats of economic losses and rising global inequalities. Conclusion and practical implications: This study adds to our understanding of the direct and intense connection between climate change effects and local and global economic developments.
