Risk Drivers

What is pushing the current reading.

Recent reports indicate that global warming is set to surpass the 1.5°C threshold, a critical limit established by the Paris Agreement, which signals a failure in current mitigation efforts and a potential acceleration of climate-related disasters. The UN and other organizations have highlighted the inadequacy of current policies and the urgent need for carbon removal strategies to reverse this trend. Additionally, extreme weather events, such as intensified El Niño phenomena and catastrophic floods in regions like Nepal, underscore the immediate impacts of climate change. These developments, coupled with policy rollbacks and legal challenges against climate initiatives, suggest a deteriorating global response to climate risks, increasing the likelihood of severe ecological and societal disruptions.
