Climate change tops future risks as more people feel its effects
More people feel vulnerable to climate risk in Europe than in the United States.
Climate change has ranked first in risk experts and the general public’s perception of future risks – as more than three-quarters of survey respondents reported feeling vulnerable to its impacts in their daily lives.
AXA’s Future Risks Report 2024 surveyed more than 3,000 risk experts from 50 countries, as well as close to 20,000 people from the general public in 15 countries to find out which risks were perceived as the most pressing.
