Climate risk means a risk resulting from climate change and affecting natural and human systems and regions. In the course of increasing global temperature and extreme weather phenomena the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been founded by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) for a better understanding of climate change and meeting concerns of these observations. Its main aim is evaluating climate risks and exploring strategies for the prevention of these risks. ==Climate risks== As per current projections of IPCC the following future effects have to be expected: * Continuous increase of temperature * Cumulation of extreme weather phenomena * Bumper crops and crop failure * Polar cap melting * Changes of the planet’s ecology * Spreading diseases * Attenuation of the North Atlantic Drift While affecting all economic sectors, the effect on single continents will differ. Beside these direct physical climate risks there are also indirect derived ones: * Physical risks * Regulational risks * Litigational risks * Competition risks * Production risks * Reputation risks 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Climate risk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
