Five Climate Risk Assessment Startups Redefining How Risk Is Measured
Between 2000 and 2019, extreme weather events caused global economic losses exceeding $143 billion annually, equivalent to $16 million every hour. As the impacts of climate change intensify, this becomes both economically and socially unsustainable. Climate Risk Assessment (CRA) helps proactively manage risk by evaluating the potential impacts of climate change on physical assets, […]
Climate Risk Assessment: Key Investment Trends to Watch in 2025
As extreme weather events grow more intense and unpredictable, climate risk must be assessed to prevent escalating financial and infrastructure losses. Climate-related disasters have caused more than $3.6 trillion in damages since 2000, and projections warn that global GDP could decline by as much as 22 percent by 2100. In response, demand is rising for […]
Climate Risk Assessment Tools: A Complete Overview
As climate change accelerates, the world faces staggering economic uncertainty. In just two decades, global warming has driven over $600 billion in insurance losses. Without swift and strategic adaptation, physical climate risks could impose $1.2 trillion in annual costs on the world’s largest companies, devalue global housing by up to $25 trillion, and place €1.3 […]
What Is Climate Risk Assessment and Why Does it Matter?
The built environment is the backbone of the economy, but it faces mounting threats such as structural damage and water inundation due to escalating climate risks. Roads, railways, telecommunications, and power networks are among the most exposed, accounting for nearly 80 percent of average annual infrastructure losses worldwide. These risks extend beyond physical damage. […]
How AI is Unlocking Climate Innovation
As the world battles intensifying environmental challenges, there is a growing urgency to scale climate technologies and decarbonize our economy. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is emerging as a powerful catalyst in this transition enabling the development of breakthrough technologies critical to the Net Zero transition. AI has made significant inroads in climate innovation. It is […]
