Risk Drivers

What is pushing the current reading.

The current climate risk assessment is driven by several factors: the increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as typhoons, floods, and wildfires, which are exacerbated by climate change, as seen in Southeast Asia and Texas. The potential collapse of the Gulf Stream and the worsening air turbulence due to climate change represent significant long-term planetary risks. Additionally, the breakdown of international climate policy efforts, such as the UN Climate Change Banking Alliance, highlights systemic policy failures. These issues, combined with the ongoing impacts of climate change on ecosystems and human health, underscore a high risk level.
