When the issue of climate change is brought to the general public, it is often a global disaster. Ironically, many people are deliberately unaware of the global climate disaster due to its wide breadth. To better frame the threats of climate change, there needs to be more focus on national or local economies. This paper uses the framework of the middle-income trap to examine the effects of climate change on Argentina's agriculture industry and national infrastructure. Through analysis, it is found that the fluctuation of Argentina's high-income and middle-income status closely correlates with climate change.
