The Doomsday Clock
The Doomsday Clock
The Doomsday Clock is a symbolic representation intended to convey to the public the current risk of global catastrophe. With the interactive, free online tool, you can explore the years and see how the hands of the Doomsday Clock have changed over time.
The Doomsday Clock is updated only when the official board of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists decides to adjust it. This board collaborates with an advisory council of experts who carefully evaluate various global factors before making their recommendation. These factors include nuclear risks, climate change, emerging technologies, geopolitical tensions and other threats that could impact humanity's survival. The clock's time reflects their overall assessment of how close we are to a potential global catastrophe.
