If you work in corporate sustainability, this pitch has become well-worn: climate resilience is good for business. Protect your assets, buttress your supply chains, and reap the rewards when trouble stirs. It's a compelling enough argument — but one that doesn't go far enough. Today's guests want companies to remember that climate resilience is not something they can achieve alone. They need the communities in which they operate in to join the fight, too.

Working in climate risk management at a US bank this past decade, you'd be forgiven for having a little whiplash. Starting around 2015, central banks and financial supervisors started probing lenders on their climate risk practices, eager to head off potential bank failures and system-wide stresses because of mounting extreme weather risks and the shift to a net-zero economy. In the space of a few years, Wall Street became home to a new wave of risk management professionals, including climate risk

Stacy Swann On Angel Investing In Climate Resilience

2026/03/17

The climate start-up world is never easy. But the last year has made it harder. Amidst the turmoil of President Trump's second coming, grants for small businesses and promising climate technologies all but evaporated. Indeed, the very word "climate" became politically radioactive in Washington. Founders who'd spent years building companies around federal funding suddenly found themselves scrambling for cash, and pushing against unprecedented policy headwinds. So where does that leave climate

Scan the headlines, and you'll see the same climate-related story again and again. It's the "uninsurability crisis". This claims that America's insurance market is cracking under the weight of climate change. Premiums are soaring. Major carriers are pulling out of California, Florida, and other high-risk states. Homeowners who've lived in the same place for decades suddenly can't afford — or can't find — coverage. And yet, paradoxically, the industry itself is still turning a profit. So who is this

Pests, invasive species, and biological (PIB) threats are on the rise. Why? You guessed it — climate change. Higher temperatures are exacerbating the spread of crop-munching pests, waterway-clogging marine species, and disease-laden insects. Indeed, PIB risks are some of the fastest-growing and most costly in our climate-altered world. A recent paper in Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation even says they are on a par with storms, floods, and wildfires — increasing by 702% from 1980–1999 to

What's the investment case for climate resilience? It's a question asked time and again here at Climate Proofers — and it's an important one. After all, if institutions can't be stirred to harden their climate defenses, the consequences will be costly: economically, financially, and societally. It's also a question that Mike Williams, President of ClimateFirst, has bet his career on answering. With his company, ClimateFirst, he's gone all-in on quantifying climate risks to buildings and producing

COP30 was billed as the adaptation COP. But did the summit live up to expectations? In this episode, E3G Senior Policy Advisor Ana Mulio Alvarez returns to the Climate Proofers podcast to deliver a frank post-mortem on the Belém conference. She gets into the gory details on how the Brazilian presidency tried to center adaptation in the talks, only to have its own messaging derailed somewhat by President Lula's energetic push for a fossil fuel roadmap. The result: a COP defined by competing
