One year ago, I posted a blog on the results of the World Economic Forum’s annual assessment of global risks. The Forum asks 900 experts from academia, business, and politics to rate global risks over a two- and ten-year-time horizon. Here is this year’s update in the form of a graphic graciously provided by Statista.
I am not surprised that environmental concerns take the top four places in the ten-year time frame, but it is fascinating that Misinformation and Societal Polarization hold two of the top spots over the next two years. Talk about self-inflicted wounds!
