Ever noticed how the world’s richest countries tend to have colder climates? Germany, Switzerland, Norway, and Sweden all have high GDP per capita, while many hotter regions—like Sub-Saharan Africa, Central America, and Southeast Asia—face economic struggles. Studies even show that for every 1°C increase in a country’s average temperature, GDP per capita drops by $762 per year! The reasons? Harsh winters may have pushed colder nations to develop stronger infrastructure, better governance, and long-term planning. Meanwhile, extreme heat can impact productivity, agriculture, and even health. 🌍❄️🔥 Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...
