Fig. 3: Lorenz curves of global income distribution in 2100.

From: Climate econometric models indicate solar geoengineering would reduce inter-country income inequality

Fig. 3

Curves are estimated using the model in column (1) of Supplementary Table 1 and Supplementary Table 1 for Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) 3. Cumulative global income vs. cumulative global population, with global warming (RCP8.5, orange), no warming, geoengineering stabilized global temperature (geo-stabilized, green) and global cooling (geo-mirrored, purple). Lorenz curve for present day income distribution is indicated by dashed line. The distribution that would be observed with perfect equality is represented by the dotted line. See Supplementary Materials for other SSPs, climate-economy model specifications (Supplementary Fig. 7).
