Climate Crisis

The climate crisis is not a future possibility. It is the reality of today, already driving widespread environmental, social and economic disruption. Global warming and systemic shifts in climate threaten the very foundations of human civilisation.

Key Characteristics of the Climate Crisis

  • Continuous rise in global average temperatures
  • Increasing frequency of extreme weather events (heatwaves, floods, droughts)
  • Melting glaciers and ice sheets, sea-level rise
  • Tipping points in climate systems and intensifying feedback loops

Consequences

  • Food and drinking water supply disruptions
  • Greater uncertainty in agricultural production
  • Ecosystem collapse and declining biodiversity
  • Social instability and migration pressures
  • Economic losses, insurance exposure and investment risks

Climate risks now require transformation across the entire socio-economic system. Their effects are no longer distant projections but rapidly intensifying, present-day forces that redefine operational conditions. The CASSee Program provides systems-based support for designing organisational adaptation and grounding long-term decision-making.
