- UN warns of harsher, disaster-filled futureHead of Global Risk Analysis and Reporting, Marc GordonThe 2019 UN Global Assessment Report has warned of a bleak future filled with harsher and worse disasters in the history of mankind. The rather scary future according to the report, is largely due to haphazard and speculative development and hostile handling of the environment. It cited the 2.5 to 3 degrees global warming above pre-industrial level; a practice that has gone on for centuries with complete disregard to the consequences. The warning was sounded by the head of Global Risk Analysis and Reporting, Marc Gordon at the 2019 Global Platform. That line of cautioning dominated discussions at the 2019 Global Platform.
