Climate Security Index

Autonomous public-data early warning for climate-security pressure over a 0–90 day horizon. This is not a conflict, famine, displacement, or casualty forecast.

The reproducible score combines NASA POWER agroclimate stress (35%), GDACS multi-hazard impact pressure (25%), NASA EONET event persistence (20%), and FAO food-price pressure (20%). Missing components are excluded and weights renormalized. A five-point concurrence bonus requires climate evidence plus independent food-price elevation.

GitHub Actions runs every six hours, tests before refresh, caches sources for at most 72 hours, preserves last-good output on total physical-source failure, commits compact accepted snapshots, and deploys GitHub Pages. Formulae and evidence are published in data/output.json.

Run locally

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
python pipeline/climate_security_index_pipeline.py
python -m http.server 8000

Open http://localhost:8000. Direct file:// access cannot fetch data/output.json in modern browsers.

Automation

GitHub Actions refreshes public data every six hours and deploys the static dashboard to GitHub Pages. AI briefs are optional: configure OPENROUTER_API_KEY as a repository Actions secret. Without it, core collection and dashboard deployment remain available.

Data notice

Source availability varies. The dashboard identifies its generation time and operating mode in data/output.json. Treat indicators as decision-support signals, not verified ground truth.
