Blind spots in climate models meant “high-impact but deeply-uncertain hazards” were ignored. But now that the threat of “synchronised harvest failures” has been revealed, we cannot ignore the prospect of global famine.

Driven by climate change, population growth and economic development, natural hazards —such as the recent bushfires in Vlog and the US, heatwaves in Europe, and floods in Japan—will in coming years become an even bigger threat.
