Risk framing is increasingly used to assess climate change impacts on human and natural systems . A risk framing reflects key dimensions of the climate challenge. These features include the changing likelihoods of many different outcomes , uncertainties that will persist, and different and contested values, priorities and goals . The IPCC AR6 and associated special reports apply a broad definition of risk. WGI Cross-Chapter Box 1.3. WGI uses the Climatic Impact Driver terminology, rather than hazard, to neutrally assess changing climatic conditions that are relevant to human and natural systems, leaving the determination of positive/negative consequences and resulting impacts and risks for WGIl assessment . In most cases, throughout this WGII report, the term 'risk' refers to the risks of climate change impacts. The full assessment, however, incorporates all relevant risks from climate change impacts and responses.
