Wildfires, hurricanes, and floods are some of the many perils exacerbated by climate change. High-risk regions face events with multi-billion dollars’ worth of damage. Over the next months, we’ll devote a number of episodes to the financial cost of climate change and how we can move forward in an effort to protect ourselves and our investments. We’re starting off the conversation with Karen Clark, a leading expert in catastrophe modeling. Karen joins Tony to explain how modeling possible catastrophic events helps insurers, financial institutions, corporations, and public agencies estimate and prepare for future losses from climate-related natural disasters.
