It complements other reports focusing on direct impacts within UK borders and the consequences of various mitigation strategies. The report aims to fill the gap in understanding the political, economic, and social impacts on the UK from changes taking place globally due to climate change. It encourages UK policymakers to consider international impacts alongside domestic ones, feeding into the UK's first Climate Change Risk Assessment and other government initiatives. Over 100 academics and stakeholders from diverse fields have contributed to the evidence base, which suggests that the UK cannot isolate itself from overseas impacts of climate change. These impacts will be felt through interconnected global networks of governance, finance, business, communications, and communities. The report identifies a range of important implications for the UK, both threats and opportunities, and emphasizes the need for a broad approach to possible responses. The UK's role in global governance, security, resources and commodities, finance and trade, human health, and social values are all areas that may be affected. The report also highlights the UK's strengths, such as its role in global governance, business, finance, and international leadership, which could help tackle global climate change through investment, innovation, and collaboration.\\ \\ (Generated with the help of GPT-4) \\ =====Additional Viewpoints===== Categories: {{tag>2011_publication_year}} | {{tag>English_publication_language}} | {{tag>business}} | {{tag>climate_change}} | {{tag>commodities}} | {{tag>communications}} | {{tag>communities}} | {{tag>finance}} | {{tag>global_impacts}} | {{tag>governance}} | {{tag>health}} | {{tag>international_institutions}} | {{tag>opportunities}} | {{tag>policy_considerations}} | {{tag>resources}} | {{tag>security}} | {{tag>social_values}} | {{tag>threats}} | {{tag>uk_dependencies}} | ~~DISCUSSION~~
