Risk Drivers

What is pushing the current reading.

The current news highlights several critical climate risks, including the exacerbation of extreme weather events like wildfires and flash floods due to climate change, which are becoming more frequent and severe. The rising cases of flesh-eating bacteria linked to climate change indicate a growing public health threat. Additionally, the ongoing policy challenges, such as the US government's attempt to revive climate change debates and the depletion of climate coalitions, suggest a lack of effective global governance to mitigate these risks.
