<abstract displayLabel="Summary">Environmental events carry with them a degree of uncertainty that hampers decision-making. Standard approaches to decision-making involve measurement of the likelihood of different environmental outcomes and how actions generate reactions. An essential adaptation to environmental uncertainty is to include measurements of risk and expectations of instability. To the end of building more robust measurements of environmental risk, this article analyses the main international sources of statistical data regarding environmental risks. This article also considers the strengths, scope and limitations of each source, as well as outline the methodology of noteworthy indicators.</abstract>
