Measuring Municipal Climate Risk, with Steve Bullock
Manage episode 433791710 series 3394818
By the 2050s, one in five U.S. counties will face compound material exposure to two or more acute climate hazards such as drought, extreme heat, wildfires, and flooding. This week, we're joined by Steve Bullock, who leads the Research and Methodology Team at S&P Global Sustainable1. He helps us break down the data and analytics being used to provide better transparency and help investors integrate climate risk into their decision-making, along with ensuring state and local governments are prepared to handle climate hazards. In Ripped from the Headlines, we discuss new rules at FEMA, including how the agency now defines a floodplain, and how this impacts the decision of where to rebuild after a flood.
