Fig. 3: Top five industrial sectors with the most severe heat-related losses in four representative countries.

a–l, Showing the top five most vulnerable sectors in Tanzania (a–c), India (d–f), Germany (g–i) and Sweden (j–l) in 2040 (a,d,g,j), 2050 (b,e,h,k) and 2060 (c,f,i,l). Sectors with absolute VA losses exceeding the median were ranked by percentage of VA losses, from highest to lowest. The length of the bar represents the 10-year average percentage VA loss of a sector. Sectors with the same percentage loss (for example, wheat, rice and cereals) were combined. Colours indicate the three categories of losses under SSP 119: health losses (yellow bars), labour productivity losses (purple bars) and indirect losses (azure bars). The orange and red bars represent the increment of the total loss under SSP 245 and SSP 585 (without differentiating by type of loss), respectively. The four types of countries were derived by machine-learning clustering based on sectoral patterns of economic loss (Supplementary Figs. 11 and 12 and Supplementary Table 3).
