What exactly is a Global Catastrophic Risk?
Seeing how "chemical weapons" or "poverty" made the list, I am quite confused about the scope of this concept.
Poverty is on the list for complicated reasons that aren't all that interesting. Some people do define chemical weapons as having catastrophic potentials; I don't agree with that, but I can't reject it out of hand.
