What are the potential climate change hazard exposures?

Potential climate change hazard exposures refer to the various risks and threats that could arise due to the changing climatic conditions around the world. These hazards include but are not limited to rising temperatures, extreme weather events such as hurricanes, floods, and droughts, sea-level rise, melting glaciers, and increased frequency and intensity of wildfires. These exposures have the potential to impact ecosystems, human health, infrastructure, agriculture, and economies. They pose risks to vulnerable populations, exacerbate existing social inequities, and can lead to displacement, food and water shortages, and economic instability. Understanding and addressing these potential exposures is crucial in developing strategies for climate change mitigation and adaptation.
