1 out of 3 people worldwide cannot afford a healthy diet. 8.2% (674 million people) of the global population experienced hunger in 2025. Healthy food remains out of reach for millions of families, especially in low-income countries. Read more: globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
Canada is going up in smoke. Wildfires are becoming more frequent and destructive, threatening our health. The choices we make today will shape tomorrow's fire seasons. Read more: globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
🌾 Japan is turning abandoned rice fields into wetlands. Wetlands bring multiple benefits to the environment and communities, such as reducing flooding risks. We can all contribute by doing our part and bring forth nature-based solutions. Read more: globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
We’re feeling nostalgic for a day full of hope with Yo-Yo Ma. Throw back to his performance last years' WEF in Davos, organised by Climate Basecamp with our support #throwbackthursday ❄️🎻 @climatebasecamp.bsky.social Watch the full performance: vimeo.com/1067341939?f...
🔥 Wildfires are no longer rare disasters. Communities across Southern Europe are facing devastating wildfires forcing more than 300,000 people to flee their homes. If this summer is extreme, what will we call next year’s? Read more: globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
🪨 Coal Has Lost Its Grip on India 82% of Indians support the ban of new coal power plants and want to replace existing coal with solar and wind. What‘s the government going to do now? Read more: globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
🌏 Southeast Asia is showing us how we can get back on the right track with nature conservation, turning mangrove losses into mangrove gains over the last decade, accounting for 43% of global mangrove expansion between 2010 and 2023. Read more: globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
🌎 Throwback to when @arielwinter joined us during Make Earth Cool Again in 2021 to ask few questions to experts, understanding more about the science behind climate change. How does climate change affect YOU? Watch the full video: arcticbasecamp.org/events/davos...
🔥 Rising temperatures, falling wages India’s poorest workers, mainly involved in the construction, transportation and agricultural sectors, have been facing the harsh consequences of the heatwave. ➡️ Read the story of Monday 20/07 here: globalclimaterisks.org/resources/in...
Picture France. Now imagine it gone. That's how much Antarctic ice failed to form between June and July this year. A simple action we can all do to help is simply reducing carbon pollution. One trip, or one meal, makes a measurable difference. Read more: globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
The heatwave also hit the northern Rockies with temperatures up to 113°F (45°C). Vulnerable communities, agriculture and wildlife are at risk because of the rapid Arctic warming. Urgent response is needed! ➡️ Read more: globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
Lethal humidity is a growing climate-health threat. Heat plus humidity can stop the body cooling itself, causing serious illness or death. As warming rises, humid heat is becoming more frequent and severe. Read more 🔗 globalclimaterisks.org/issues/globa...
Climate change is drying out Canada's forests, creating longer fire seasons. Days of extreme fire weather could rise 20-50% under moderate emissions, and over 50% under high emissions, by 2071-2100. Wildfire smoke doesn't stay put. Neither do the risks of a warming planet.
Health was a key focus at Exeter Climate Forum: from lethal heat and mental health to disease spread, nature recovery and AI. One message stood out—climate change is a health issue, and climate action protects people, nature and the planet. Read more 🔗 globalclimaterisks.org/issues/globa...
Paris hit 44°C. Hospitals reported a surge in dehydration, cardiac stress. Paris will not be the last city making decisions like this. Read the full alert at globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
The 2026 World Cup will be played in hotter conditions than ever before. Climate change is increasing the likelihood of performance-impairing heat in 97/104 matches. Read more via project-basecamp.org/forcedbreak/
Heat is a growing threat to heart health in India, where cardiovascular disease is already the leading cause of death. High temperatures strain the heart and worsen wider risks — from respiratory illness to food, water, and disease pressures. Read more 🔗 globalclimaterisks.org/issues/globa...
Amsterdam is the world's first capital city to ban ads for meat, flights, cruises and petrol cars - on trams, metros and billboards. A capital doing this signals where the market's heading: globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
Extreme heat is already costing lives, productivity and resilience. Allianz finds heat-stress events have risen sevenfold since the 1980s; above 30°C, each extra degree can cut labour productivity by ~3%. Read more 🔗 globalclimaterisks.org/issues/globa...
Antarctica lost ~2 million km² of sea ice in 2023. Warmer deep ocean water is rising, melting sea ice and making it harder to return. Less ice = more heat absorbed, accelerating warming. What happens there affects us all. Read more 🔗 globalclimaterisks.org/insights/blo...
