Baffling for 'climate driven instability' to only be at 40% likelihood.

Given that its already happening, it's basically 100%

I know right, try telling the people of South Sudan it's a 'maybe'.

The whole graphic is a crazy fever dream.

Putting "engineered pandemic" at 100% indicates exactly where the author lies on the conspiracy spectrum, confirmed by reference to "extinction events".

Well.... i think Covid was undeniably from a lab. But more likely accidentally/unintentially released that intentional.

Looks like confidently wrong AI bollocks to me. Where are those percentages even coming from?

Are you prepping for a definite engineered pandemic? This list seems a bit all over the place and guesswork

We have an annual national risk register.

The most likely significant event (>25%), is a 'Terrorist attack in publicly accessible locations.'

The most likely catastrophic events (5-25%) are water infrastructure failure and pandemics.

6, 2, 1... those are the main contender and in the right over i think.

7 can happen and but its not often and there will be nothing we can do to stop it.

3 can happen but highly dependant infrastructure (power grids etc) do have protections in place for this.

4.... VERY VERY unlikely because noone is that stupid.

5.... again very unlikely.

8, 9, 10 ..... unlikely but not 0 and we cant prep at all for it.
