Abstract: Abstract Climate changeClimate change alters human habitat, and this emerges largely as a result of the impact of human activity. The risks associated with this process are twofold. The first set of risks emerges as a direct consequence of the process itself and its disruptive impact upon human activity through—for example—more frequent extreme weather events. The second set of risks emerges as a legacy of those actions to deal with the impact of climate change. On top of those human-generated risks, there are also long-standing risks with regard to geological processes such as earthquakes and volcanic activity.
