Risk Drivers

What is pushing the current reading.

The recent record-breaking heatwaves across the U.S., which experts attribute as 'virtually impossible' without climate change, highlight the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. These events, coupled with the dismissal of climate litigation cases and continued policy challenges, underscore the systemic failures in addressing climate change. Additionally, the disproportionate impact on poorer countries and the exacerbation of global inequalities further elevate the long-term planetary risks. The ongoing collapse of modern agriculture and the need for adaptive strategies, as seen in indigenous farming practices, emphasize the urgent need for systemic change to mitigate these risks.
