They seem to define Trap as "situation with high risk of hard-to-reverse lock-ins and growing risks of negative impacts on human well-being" Here's the list: global traps 1. simplification - increasing specialization produces simplified sub-systems that are vulnerable to shocks 2. growth-for-growth - institutional lock-ins drive pursuit of growth at the cost of well-being 3. overshoot - continued material growth leads to overshoot of Earth system tipping points 4. division - unstable selection for global human cooperation increases risk of international conflict 5. contagion - global connectivity increases the risk of large-scale contagion, e.g. of infectious diseases technology traps 6. infrastructure lock-in - complex material infrastructure becomes maladaptive, e.g. owing to sunk costs 7. chemical pollution - capacity to produce complex or persistent compounds that can cause long-term harm to humans and ecosystems 8. existential technology - technological arms-races drive the evolution of existential technology, such as weapons of mass destruction 9. technological autonomy - reliance on automation can backfire if systems become misaligned to human needs 10. dis- and misinformation - digitalization can amplify spread of mis- and disinformation e.g. destabilizing democracies structural traps 11. short-termism - favour of short-term over long-term benefits reinforces other traps and promotes conflict 12. overconsumption - separation of production and consumption facilitates overconsumption 13. biosphere disconnect - separation of human settlements and ecosystems reduces awareness about their benefits 14. local social capital loss - digitalization can lead to loss of local social capital through reduced interaction and echo chambers
