Risk Drivers
What is pushing the current reading.
Recent reports and observations, including the second-warmest May on record in 2025 and increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as tornadoes and early winters, underscore the escalating impact of climate change. The persistence of high emission levels, particularly noted spikes in potent greenhouse gases in regions like China, exacerbates the situation. Despite some advancements in climate modeling and localized mitigation efforts, global policy responses remain insufficient to address the scale of the threat. The ongoing geopolitical reluctance to enforce more stringent climate policies, especially in significant emitter countries, further complicates efforts to mitigate climate risks.
Risk Reduction Actions
