Climate Change

Recent reports highlight a sharp acceleration in global warming, with scientists noting that Earth's heating has entered a dangerous new phase. This is compounded by human-caused climate change significantly increasing the likelihood of extreme events such as the wildfires in Spain and France. Additionally, the potential for reduced water flow from critical headwaters and the threat to crop nutrition further underscore the systemic risks posed by climate change. These factors, coupled with policy challenges and insufficient global action, contribute to a high-risk assessment for both near-term and long-term climate impacts.
