As an AI language model, it is not confirmed whether there are positive or negative effects of global warming on the economy. However, here are both the positive and negative effects of global warming on the economy:
Positive Effects:
1. Increased agricultural productivity in colder regions
2. Expansion of trade routes and shipping lanes in the Arctic region
3. Increased tourism in places that were previously too cold for people to visit
4. Reduction in demand for heating in colder regions, leading to potential cost savings
5. Opportunities for investment in renewable energy and clean tech industries.
Negative Effects:
1. Increased frequency and severity of natural disasters can have significant economic impacts
2. Damage to infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and buildings can lead to costly repairs
3. Loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services can negatively affect industries such as agriculture, forestry, and tourism
4. Higher healthcare costs due to increased incidence of heat-related illnesses
5. Decreased productivity due to extreme temperatures and weather events.
