Leveraging machine learning techniques, we analyze global land surface temperature data from Berkeley Earth and economic indicators, including GDP and population data, from the World Bank. Our analysis reveals a significant relationship between average temperature and GDP growth, suggesting that climate variations can substantially impact economic performance. This research underscores the importance of incorporating climate factors into economic planning and policymaking, and it demonstrates the utility of machine learning in uncovering complex relationships in climate-economy studies.  \n1 Introduction  \nClimate change, a defining issue of our time, has far-reaching implications that extend beyond the environmental sphere.  \nAmong these, the economic consequences of climate change are of paramount importance, yet they remain insufficiently understood. This research aims to shed light on this critical issue by investigating the long-term effects of temperature variations on economic growth.  \nThe global economy is a complex system influenced by a multitude of factors, among which climatic conditions play a significant role. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the global temperature has increased by approximately 1.0°C since the pre-industrial period due to human activities, primarily the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation [1] . This rise in temperature has led to more frequent and severe weather events, such as droughts, floods, and storms, which have direct and indirect impacts on economic activities.  \nMoreover, the World Bank estimates that climate change could push more than 100 million people into poverty by 2030 due to its impacts on agriculture and food prices [2] . On a macroeconomic level, a study published  \nin Nature found that unmitigated climate change could lead to a 23% reduction in global GDP per capita by 2100 [3] .  \nDespite the urgency and magnitude of this issue, there is a gap in the literature regarding the use of machine learning techniques to investigate the long-term effects of temperature variations on economic growth. This study aims to fill this gap by applying machine learning models to global land surface temperature data from Berkeley Earth and economic indicators from the World Bank.  \nOur specific research question is: How do long-term temperature variations affect economic growth? The findings ofthis study will provide valuable insights for policymaking and future climate-economy research.  \n2 Literature Review  \nThe relationship between climate change and economic growth has been a subject of extensive research over the past few decades. Various studies have explored this relationship from different perspectives, providing valuable insights but also leaving some questions unanswered.  \nOne of the earliest studies in this field by Nordhaus (1991) introduced the concept of the \"environmental Kuznets curve\", suggesting that economic development initially leads to environmental degradation, but after a certain point, further development reduces environmental impacts [4] .  \nFigure 1 : Environmental Kuznets curve  \nThis theory has been challenged by subsequent research indicating that the relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation is not universally applicable and depends on various factors, including the type of environmental pressure a","cbCaia4vSgzBWWl6","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaia4vSgzBWWl6","pdf",810172,1,15,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n# Literature Review\n# Methods\n## Data Sources\n## Data Exploration and Preprocessing\n## Feature Engineering and Machine Learning Modeling","[{\"question\":\"What is the main research question of the study?\",\"answer\":\"How do long-term temperature variations affect economic growth?
