Climate change is one of the most pressing challenges facing humanity in the 21st century. As global temperatures continue to rise and extreme weather events multiply, the need to understand and anticipate climate risks becomes imperative. The consequences of these risks are not limited to the environmental sphere; they also affect economic, social and political aspects, thus jeopardizing sustainable development efforts on a global scale.Against this backdrop, this book aims to explore the multiple dimensions of climate risk and its impact on the sustainable development of nations. Through in-depth analysis, we examine how manifestations of climate change such as droughts, floods and storms impact not only ecosystems, but also economies, societies and people's quality of life. We highlight the importance of adaptation and mitigation policies, while underlining the essential role of education and awareness-raising in the fight against climate change.
