This study documents the impacts of climate change on firm-level productivity by matching a globally comparable and standardized survey of nonagricultural firms covering 154 countries with climate data. The findings show that the overall effects of rising temperatures on productivity are negative but nonlinear and uneven across climate zones. Firms in hotter zones experience steeper losses with increases in temperature. A 1 degree Celsius increase from the typical wet-bulb temperature
