Risk Drivers

What is pushing the current reading.

The current climate risk is elevated due to a combination of immediate and long-term factors. The exclusion of climate change from the G7 agenda, driven by geopolitical considerations, represents a significant policy failure that undermines coordinated global action against climate change. This is compounded by the increasing frequency and intensity of wildfires in the Eastern US, and the severe marine heatwave off California and Mexico, both of which are exacerbated by climate change. Additionally, the northward migration of beavers is reshaping Arctic ecosystems, highlighting the complex feedback loops and ecosystem disruptions that climate change can trigger. These events underscore the urgent need for comprehensive and effective climate policies and actions to mitigate these risks.
