Global Catastrophic Risks Report 2024

The Global Challenges Foundation has released its 2024 Global Catastrophic Risks Report with 12 excellent summary articles by the world's leading experts that cross-link the environment, climate change, the nuclear threat, justice and governance, among other issues. It draws on the most recent thinking of IPCC, IPBES, the Club of Rome, Earth4All and other groups. The essays focus on how the risks of climate change, ecological collapse and weapons of mass destruction intersect and exacerbate one another. For example, resource scarcity driven by climate change can spark social conflict, and rising sea levels and increased frequency of extreme weather events threaten the safety of nuclear facilities. Together they provide valuable perspectives on the increasing risks we face and the options available to try to minimise or avoid them.
