The most widely recognised manifestation of climate change is the rising global temperature. In the coming decades, extreme weather events linked to global warming will challenge the sustainability and resilience of systems that have traditionally fallen outside the criminological inquiry. The heat-crime nexus, heat-induced economic vulnerabilities, the exploitation of climate refugees, and the potential rise of radical and terrorist groups illustrate the narrative in the unfolding story about the changing landscape of crimes and harms. This also shows the need for criminology to integrate psychological insights with sociological theories for a more comprehensive understanding of these evolving dynamics. Furthermore, the content of this section is intricately tied to the broader question of how long-term shifts in temperature and weather patterns are impacting human behaviour, reshaping social values, norms, and transforming the ways in which individuals and communities relate and interact.
