Common questions

Answer-first, drawn from the same data above.

How risky is Mexico?
Mexico sits mid-pack overall, with adaptation the main pressure. Its overall risk score is 53 out of 100 (medium), blended from World Bank, INFORM Risk Index and ND-GAIN Country Index.
What drives Mexico's risk?
Mexico's highest pressures are adaptation (64, high) and climate (61). Its strongest area is social (32).
How might Mexico's climate change by 2080?
Under a high-emissions scenario (SSP5-8.5), about 16% of Mexico's land shifts toward a drier, more arid zone by 2080, lifting its climate-hazard pressure index from 71 to 70 out of 100. This Koppen-based outlook is a separate, forward-looking measure from the historical ND-GAIN scores.
When was Mexico's risk data last updated?
