There are few things more devastating to a country’s economy than a full-blown financial crisis. In the US, the memory of the near-implosion of the banking industry in 2008-2009 is seared into the minds of policymakers. It may be hard to recall just how calamitous that event was with fifteen years distance — but at its nadir the US unemployment rate surged to 10%, and economic output shrank 4.3%. No wonder regulators are preoccupied with avoiding a repeat. One potential vector for a future crisis is

Paige Roepers On Geospatial Data For Coastal Resilience

Climate Proofers ·

2025/06/03

Climate change is giving the coasts one hell of a beating. Rising oceans and worsening seaborne tempests are chipping away at our shorelines, degrading coastal ecosystems, and putting trillions of dollars of property, infrastructure, and water-based commerce at risk. The fast-changing vulnerability of coastal economies is a nightmare for insurers in particular, which are wrestling with how to model flood and erosion risks given the climate-induced tumult. Ocean Ledger is here to help. In this

Cities are getting hammered by climate shocks. These concrete jungles are highly exposed to extreme weather events and slow-onset climatic changes — from wildfires (Los Angeles) to floods (Nashville, Lagos, Karachi) to heatwaves (Delhi, Houston, Madrid). This exposure is only going to increase. Roughly half the world’s population live in urban areas today, but their share is due to exceed 70% by 2050.
