Risk Drivers

What is pushing the current reading.

The current climate risk is exacerbated by significant policy setbacks, such as the repeal of key climate regulations and the appointment of climate skeptics in influential positions, which undermine efforts to mitigate climate change. Additionally, the imminent threat of extinction for thousands of animal species and the acceleration of global warming due to reduced aerosols highlight the urgent need for comprehensive climate action. These factors contribute to long-term risks including biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse, and intensified climate feedback loops.
