Still No Place to Hide: Our new review finds shortcomings in global catastrophe resilience
The global catastrophic risk field has grown fast over the last decade. This research has been good at analysing hazards, how much soot a nuclear war injects into the stratosphere, what a Carrington-class solar storm does to electrical transformers, how a large magnitude volcanic eruption perturbs the monsoon. Research is far weaker on the question a policymaker in Wellington, Reykjavík or Montevideo actually asks:
Given all this hazard, how exposed are we, and what can we do about it?
That is the gap our review set out to fill. We ran a systematic OpenAlex scan that returned 3,200 candidate papers, screened down to 551, then to 147 read in full. We closed the remaining gaps by bringing in subject-matter expertise on societal collapse, volcanism, cyberattack and food systems, which added a further 77 expert-identified papers, for a final included corpus of 152.
No Place on Earth Is Safe if All Hell Breaks Loose, But One Place Is Safer Than The Rest
Sometimes it seems like there's no end to the catastrophic dangers we face as a species.
Nuclear armageddon. Climate change. Pandemics. AI. Supervolcanoes. The list is a long one.
But if all hell really does break loose and some kind of unprecedented global disaster strikes, where would you go?
What would be the safest place to seek shelter, to lay low and ride out the storm, and hopefully survive to see a brighter day?
In the first study of its kind, published in Global Challenges, scientists have identified what appears to be the overall safest place in the world in the event of an unmitigated calamity.
