SRM Leaders Must Plan Immediately for Climate Change Risk or Become Outmoded
- Deepti Gopal | Simon Mingay | David Gregory
- 8 September 2021
Climate change is an operational risk. Investors and stakeholders are driving organizations to strategize and manage material risks arising from climate change. Security and risk management leaders must be involved or accept that they will not have the resources to manage this operational risk.
Overview
Impacts
- Climate change will introduce new risks and exacerbate existing risks, affecting organizations worldwide.
- Organizations are under increasing pressure to update their risk assessments and business impact analysis in the face of climate change, particularly with respect to material risks.
- Climate-related risks introduce new considerations to existing strategic and operational plans.
Recommendations
Security and risk management leaders should:
- Work with enterprise risk and sustainability leaders to ensure that new climate-change-related risks and changes to existing risks are identified.
- Work with community leaders, scientists and emergency management organizations to understand and ensure that the assessments related to operational risks are accurate. Read more...
Everbridge Perspective: Unlocking Climate Change Resilience
Solution
Everbridge provides governments, institutions, and enterprises the tools required to dynamically assess risk, enable adaptability, and build resilience against climate change related natural disasters, as well as any type of critical event that may threaten an organization’s people, assets, and/or facilities.
Everbridge Powers Resilience Against Extreme Climate Events through Tech
Across the spectrum of emergencies, climate-induced events are among the most frequent and devastating. This has led to a boom in weather, climate, and hydrological services (hydromet services). From telecommunication to artificial intelligence and machine learning, the rapid advances in technology and innovation have simultaneously contributed to and been expanded by the range of products and services that can be considered part of the hydromet value chain. Solutions span mitigation, adaptation, and loss/damage; we will speak to the first two areas below.
The hydromet chain is a framework for the prediction and prevention of natural hazards related to severe hydrometeorological events. The hydromet chain aims to optimize warning systems used for risk assessment and mitigation.
Ultimately, Everbridge technology provides an important element of this chain, the “last mile”. How can a business successfully reduced climate change risk? By communicating emergency messages to targeted groups more rapidly, effectively and across a number of modalities – Everbridge solutions mitigate the impact of and aid organizations in adapting to climate risk.
