Upcoming PhD defence by Daniel Duarte: "Human & Environmental Risk Assessment of Pharmaceuticals" (Environmental Science department) on Monday 25th of September. In his thesis, Daniel assessed the risks posed by pharmaceutical pollution to the aquatic system and humans via environmental exposure.

From that study on #HurricaneLane
#hurricanelane #disasterresponse #riskassessment #hawaii
A study of #HurricaneLane in 2020 examined how #ClimateChange can lead to #CompoundHazards in #RiskAssessment.
"The simultaneous occurrence of rain-driven flooding & landslides, high-intensity winds, & multiple fires complicated emergency response. The compounding nature of the hazards produced during the Hurricane Lane event highlights the need to improve anticipation of complex feedback mechanisms among climate- & weather-related phenomena"

It is important to think of #ClimateEmergency #RiskAssessment in terms of being a potential 'force multiplier' in military parlance.
Imagine this #ransomware attack during a #heatwave. imagine it targeting utility companies at the same time. Or targeting fire departments during a wildfire.
#climateemergency #riskassessment #ransomware #heatwave
The most glaring issue with that #RiskAssessment is the #ClimateEmergency.
If a drone or terror attack are considered moderate impact, I'd say greater than 50% chance of a moderate impact climate disaster in the UK in the next 2-5 years.
#riskassessment #climateemergency
most likely major risks, at greater than 25% chance in the next 2 to 5 yrs & “moderate” impact were terrorist attacks in public places, tech failure in the financial services industry, attack on a non-Nato ally, & disaster response overseas.
threat of a malicious drone attack rated “moderate” in impact, but only 0.2% to 1% likely in next 2 yrs.
Both artificial intelligence and climate change are rated as “chronic” risks along with antimicrobial resistance, & organised crime.
The #UK updated (and declassified portions) of its Risk Register...
possibility of a “catastrophic” pandemic as 5% to 25% likely in a 5-year period.
an attack on infrastructure, such as its energy network, with a “significant” impact as 5% to 25% likely within a 2-year period.
failure of the electric grid & a large-scale chemical, biological, nuclear or radiological attack are both assessed as 1% to 5% likely within 2-5 years.

Laypeople often only assess #risk based on how probable it is that something bad will happen. But equally important is how bad that bad thing is.
These two things need to be multiplied to do a proper #RiskAssessment.

TITLE: Blog post on racism and risk assessment
-------- Forwarded Message --------
Hi folks:
It’s probably of interest only to a few on this list, but since I was
posting it elsewhere...
This week's /Sexual Abuse/ blog is on racism and risk assessment.
Obviously, no single blog post can cover everything on this topic, but I
did what I could.
