This research paper throws light on a unifying theoretical framework for better understanding the relationship between climate change and income. Different case studies prove that not only poor states but also rich states are affected by climate change, the most vulnerable among them being resource-less countries who have limited financial resources to cope with disasters. Extreme weather conditions threaten lives in these front-line communities, driving people from their homes and jeopardizing food sources and livelihoods, all of them increasing likelihood of more conflict, hunger, and poverty. As an estimate, researchers found that the climate change will lessen average income by 75 percent in 2100 in deprived countries while the richest 20 percent of countries may experience trivial expansion because of their action towards climate change (University of Cambridge, 2019). It will be a unique contribution in a research pool in terms of individual’s behavior towards climate change on the basis of their monthly income because in past many researches are conducted on income inequality and climate change at country level. The core interest of this study is to investigate that; how earning will contribute to inactions of an individual towards climate change. Online and offline questionnaire-based survey was conducted on a sample of 445 comprises of all gender (Iranian Immigrants) in Sweden. Data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics. The study reveals that Income contributed a lot towards buying behaviors in relation of climate change.
