This experience gap is why we see a really odd finding in the most recent World Risk Poll. a big majority of people individually are VERY concerned about the impact of the changing climate on their country in next 20 years. But also believe general societal concern about it is far LOWER
Zeke Hausfather@zekehausfather.com · 4w agoWhy is AC so rare in much of Europe? Well, until recently it simply wasn't hot enough to need it. Here is the average number of days above 30C (86F) for major cities over time:
This is fascinating - in most countries happier people are less worried. BUT not in Egypt, Pakistan, India, Nigeria and the Philippines - big low middle income countries. I wonder if there is a very real chance of things going wrong with serious consequences?
Nancy Hey@worklifeyou.bsky.social · last mo.Usually the more you are Thriving the less you worry about any risks to personal safety but.. In some big low middle income countries it’s the opposite those Thriving worry more about risks
Mixing my two worlds here. We did analysis of Wellbeing (life evaluations) and the World Risk Poll for the first time this year. Our biggest top of mind risk to personal safety really does change depending on if you are Thriving= high Wellbeing it’s traffic Struggling= low Wellbeing it’s £

But something odd is happening. Globally, how many hour you work doesn’t change your likelihood of harm all that much. But in high income countries that changes. A lot. We think this harm is much more likely to be to do with mental health than getting physically injured. ⬇️
Your next hydration break evidence drop 16% of people globally say they’ve been harmed at work in the last two years. This is about 610 million people. The World Risk Poll helps make this visible in many places where official data doesn’t exist yet.
Hope you got some sleep in the heat. I was on BBC news last night with some data Concern about climate change as a threat to people in your country in next 20 years has dropped in intensity in more than 50% of high income countries over the last four years
Unsurprisingly we see ‘war / terrorism’ as a top safety concern emerge in Eastern Europe. This is fourth biggest concern in UK up 4pp in two years.
