Ekstremni vremenski pojavi postajajo vse bolj intenzivni in pogostejši.12,13 (IPCC 2007)
Nekaj izmed največjih katastrof leta 2010:
Ruski vročinski val in požari. Zaradi poletnega vročinskega vala leta 2010 in onesnaženega zraka zaradi požarov gozdov se je število umrlih ljudi v Moskvi podvojilo na končno število 700 smrti na dan.14,15 (Ruska akademija znanosti) Mestni predstavniki Moskve (Rusija) poročajo o 60% porastu smrtnosti v preteklem poletju, ko je zaradi posledic prekomerne količine smoga in rekordno visokih temperatur umrlo približno 11.000 prebivalcev mesta.16
Pakistanske poplave. Zaradi obsežnih poplav, ki so bile najhujše v zgodovini države, je umrlo približno 2.000 ljudi, več kot 20 milijonov je bilo poškodovanih ali pa so ostali brez doma. Pod vodo je bila ena petina države.17
Plazovi na Kitajskem. Samo v letu 2010 je zaradi plazov in poplav po celi državi i umrlo 3.100 ljudi, 1.000 je bilo pogrešanih. Število poplav na Kitajskem je v primerjavi z letom 1950 naraslo sedemkrat.18
Brazilijosta v aprilu in juniju 2010 prizadeli izjemno težki poplavi, ki sta vsakič zahtevali stotine smrtnih žrtev.19
Poljska je maja 2010 trpela najhujše poplave zadnjih desetletij.20
Poleti leta 2010 so na Portugalskem
divjali gozdni požari, ki so jih povzročili nizka vlažnost zraka, močni vetrovi in visoke temperature, ki so presegle rekordnih 40 stopinj Celzija.21
2010 je Čad in Nigerijonajprej prizadela suša, nato pa so ji sledile poplave, ki so uničile še preostanek pridelkov, ki ga suša ni uničila.22
2010 so Indijo, severno Evropo, Severno Ameriko in Južno Ameriko prizadeli ekstremen mraz in snežne nevihte.
V Indoneziji, Islandiji, Turčiji, Čilu, Haitiju, itd. so leta 2010 zabeležili veliko potresov in vulkanske aktivnosti.
Globalno segrevanje lahko sproži izbruh vulkanov, ki so pokriti z ledom, npr. islandski Eyjafjallajökull. Izguba ledu zmanjšuje pritisk na vroče kamenine pod zemeljsko površino, zaradi česar vulkani lažje izbruhnejo.23(Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A, 2010)
Zaradi podnebnega segrevanja se je v zadnjem desetletju povečalo število zemeljskih in snežnih plazov v visokogorju. Izbruh vulkanov je vse lažji, povzročeni veliki zemeljski plazovi pa lahko uničijo celotna mesta.24

Ledeniška jezera pozročajo poplave, ker zaradi taljenja ledenikov narašča število in velikost jezer.25(Mednarodni center za integrirani razvoj gora (ICIMOD) v Kathmandu, 2010)
