Industrial Info Resources
[New] The new high-emission scenario still leads to significant climate change, while uncertainties in the climate system mean that global temperature rise could even exceed 4 °C by 2100.
PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency
[New] 2026's heat and fires are occurring as evidence is growing that human-caused climate crisis is accelerating - portending increased odds of tail-risk disasters.
The Guardian
[New] As a result of climate change, heatwaves in NSW are projected to be more intense, occur more often and last longer.
AdaptNSW
[New] Climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of heat waves on the world's fastest-warming continent, straining health, transport and power systems, while exposing the housing vulnerabilities of cities like London.

T Challenge
[New] Climate adaptation itself presents an economic opportunity - one that China is better positioned to take advantage of than the United States.
This is Not Cool
Fastest Growing Segment: Agricultural resilience technologies are projected to grow at a 20.3% CAGR through 2033, fueled by rising food demand, increasing climate-related yield risks, and accelerated adoption of climate-smart farming solutions.
Persistence Market Research
Fastest Growing Region: Asia Pacific is the fastest-growing region, forecast to expand at a 19.4% CAGR during 2026-2033, driven by large-scale urban resilience initiatives, smart city programs, high climate vulnerability, and multilateral development financing.
Persistence Market Research
Global warming is now likely to reach 2 °C before 2050, a level associated with major disruption to water and food systems, migration and human health, increasing the risk of climate-driven inflation, financial shocks and the withdrawal of insurance from high-risk areas much sooner than expected.
