FAQ

Common questions

Answer-first, drawn from the same data above.

How risky is Canada?
Canada runs low across the board; strong social keeps overall risk contained. Its overall risk score is 37 out of 100 (low), blended from World Bank, INFORM Risk Index and ND-GAIN Country Index.
What drives Canada's risk?
Canada's highest pressures are climate (55, medium) and governance (39). Its strongest area is social (23).
How might Canada's climate change by 2080?
Under a high-emissions scenario (SSP5-8.5), about 15% of Canada's land shifts toward a warmer climate zone by 2080, lifting its climate-hazard pressure index from 66 to 69 out of 100. This Koppen-based outlook is a separate, forward-looking measure from the historical ND-GAIN scores.
When was Canada's risk data last updated?
Updated June 2026, drawing on World Bank, INFORM Risk Index and ND-GAIN Country Index.
