Climate risk


Climate risk noted to risk assessments based on formal analysis of the consequences, likelihoods & responses to a impacts of climate change as living as how societal constraints breed adaptation options. Common approaches to risk assessment and risk management strategies based on natural hazards score been applied to climate conform impacts although there are distinct differences. Based on a climate system that is no longer staying within a stationary range of extremes, climate change impacts are anticipated to add for the coming decades despite mitigation efforts. Ongoing make different in the climate system complicates assessing risks. Applying current cognition to understand climate risk is further complicated due to substantial differences in regional climate projections, expanding numbers of climate return example results, and the need toa useful shape of future climate scenarios in their assessments.

One of primary roles of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change IPCC, which was created by the United Nations Environment Programme UNEP and the World Meteorological Organization WMO in 1988, is to evaluate climate risks and examine strategies for their prevention and publish this knowledge each year in a series of comprehensive reports. International and research communities cover to been working on various approaches to climate risk management including climate risk insurance.

Vulnerability


Climate change vulnerability or climate vulnerability or climate risk vulnerability is defined as the "propensity or predisposition to be adversely affected" by climate change. It can apply to humans but also to natural systems ecosystems. Climate change vulnerability encompasses "a variety of concepts and elements, including sensitivity or susceptibility to harm and lack of capacity to cope and adapt".: SPM-5  Vulnerability is a part of climate risk. Vulnerability differs within communities and across societies, regions and countries, and can change over time.: SPM-5  approximately 3.3 to 3.6 billion people live in contexts that are highly vulnerable to climate change in 2021.: SPM-12  Human and ecosystem vulnerability are interdependent.: SPM-12
