Climate Driven Heat Impacts on the Tampa Bay Region Under a High Emissions Scenario considers the implications of a high greenhouse gas emissions climate scenario — dubbed the High Emissions scenario, on critical points of the regional economy — agriculture, mortality rates, labor productivity, and energy demand. This report delineates the magnitude of key potential impacts to the region’s economic and fiscal baseline and some of the indirect and interaction effects between climate change and policy. It will be up to future efforts to explore how adaptation and mitigation measures will change the region and the state’s course.
