Threat

Good news: 69% of people worldwide see climate change as a serious threat (28% say serious; 41% say very serious). This is according to the Lloyd’s Register Foundation World Risk Poll. It still leaves 13% who do not perceive a threat and 18% who don’t know or refused to answer. But if you know anything about how complex systems change, this two-thirds-plus majority is more than enough to flip global society into a new way of behaving and doing business – despite die-hard deniers, lobbyists and laggards. We are social animals strongly influenced by prevailing norms in an interconnected system.
