Risk Drivers

What is pushing the current reading.

The proposed rollback of key climate regulations by the EPA, including the rescinding of the 'endangerment finding,' undermines efforts to mitigate climate change and exacerbates long-term risks by potentially increasing greenhouse gas emissions. This policy shift occurs alongside reports of extreme weather events, such as deadly floods and prolonged droughts affecting energy production, highlighting the immediate and severe impacts of climate change. Additionally, the legal obligations set by the International Court of Justice emphasize the urgency of coordinated global action, which is threatened by these policy changes. These developments collectively signal a high risk to both current and future climate stability.
