Australia 2026
오스트레일리아
Australia enters 2027 as a high-income, highly urbanised country that is also a large net energy exporter, an arid-continent water system and one of the most fire-exposed populations in the world. Its resident population reached 27.92 million at 31 March 2026, growing 1.4% in a year, about three quarters of it through net overseas migration.

01 · Readings
Australia in six readings.
Six readings that frame the Australia baseline, and the eight questions this edition answers, each with its status and source.
02 · Sectors
Six sectors, one hexagon.
Water first, then Energy, Infrastructure, Food, Health and Biodiversity. Each count is the findings of this edition in that sector: coverage of the evidence, never a score. Infrastructure is not assessed: the edition holds no Infrastructure finding and its coupling matrix does not assess it.
- WAT물2 findings
11,760 GL Water consumed by agriculture, forestry and fishing, 2023–24. □보고값
Arid continent with high year-to-year variation; 17,223 GL consumed in 2023–24, about 68% by agriculture.
- ENE에너지2 findings
33% Wind and solar share of electricity, 2025. □보고값
Net energy exporter; wind and solar 33%, coal 43% of electricity in 2025.

122.5 index Food production index (2014–16 = 100), 2024. □보고값
Food production index 122.5 in 2024; agricultural land 369 million hectares in 2021–22.
- HLT보건2 findings
417 people Smoke-related deaths estimated for the 2019–20 fires, 2020. □보고값
Life expectancy 81.1 and 85.1 years; 18.1% aged 65 or over.
- BIO생물다양성1 finding
22.0% Land in protected areas, 2024. □보고값
Protected: 22.0% of land and 45.4% of territorial waters. Condition not bound.
Outside the six sectors: Climate forcing 3, Systemic 1.
03 · Hazard exposure
The hazards this edition reads.
The edition’s own risk objects, in its order, each read across driver, exposure, vulnerability, capacity, cascade and horizon. The hexagon marks the sectors the cascade reaches; the domain beside each is an editorial reading of its hazard words.

Scenario · SCN-AUS-FIR-01
Hot, dry summer in the populated south-east
Under this scenario, results describe a conditional season under stated assumptions. It is not a forecast, and no intervention described here has been carried out.

04 · Couplings
How the sectors carry risk into each other.
The Australia matrix types the twenty couplings between the five core 시스템. Strengths are Nexus estimates from the cited evidence and analogue events; they set the starting graph that the Q1 2027 Foundry cut will test.
