气候变化威胁地球食水供应、减少农业生产、危及沿海地区、损害人类健康，并使生态系统恶化。极端天气造成的过度死亡，更被认为是一大灾难性后果。据2017年发表于《科学》（Science）期刊的一篇文章估计，到二十一世纪末，极端气候带来的超额死亡成本可能占美国气候灾难损失总额约70%之多。

警方包庇有组织犯罪的情况偶有所闻，但往往很难通过实证来研究。研究利用来自中国独特的性交易数据，证实地方警察或对一些有组织的卖淫活动提供庇护。具体而言，位于警力密度较高的社区内的桑拿浴室和按摩院，受到警方「保护」的机会较高，进而可以进行高风险、高罪责的卖淫活动。在地方警察「扫黄」期间，这种庇护效应更加明显，意味着选择性执法的存在。地方领导层的变化和中央政府纪律部队巡视则会显著减弱这种庇护效应。
