According to the Global Risk Report of the World Economic Forum (WEF) published in 2020, when evaluated in terms of their possibility and impact, eight of the top 10 risks are related to the environment and climate crisis. The Green Deal announced by the European Union (EU) at the end of 2019 includes the EU's goal of being the first carbon-neutral continent by 2050 and the steps to be taken to reach this target.
