Doomsday Clock inches closest to midnight over mounting global threats
Description
January 28, 2025
During Tuesday's press conference, scientists unveiled the Doomsday clock at 89 seconds to midnight, the closest to existential catastrophe it has ever been before. They say it's due to insufficient progress on global challenges such as nuclear risk, climate change, biological threats and advances in disruptive technologies -- all exacerbated by misinformation, disinformation and conspiracy theories.
