Resiliency & Sustainability: The Insurer's Role
CE - PA and DE
1:45PM - 3:00PM (EST)
Human-caused climate change is and will continue to have a significant impact on the physical environment, ecosystems, and societies. Greenhouse gas emissions have caused rising temperatures and resulting loss of Arctic sea ice, accelerated seas level rise, longer, more intense heat waves, and more frequent and severe wildfires and windstorms. Climate change will impact human health, food security, agriculture and marine food production, access to fresh water supplies, and economic uncertainty and insecurity.
Businesses must develop holistic, enterprise-wide strategies to cope with climate change. This begins with identifying the risks associated with climate change, including physical risks to property and people, transition risks, ability to access resources and supplies, legal exposures, and risks to company reputation.
This course reviews the overall impact of climate change, the types of strategies that will be necessary to cope with it, and the insurance industry’s role in helping businesses adopt sustainable and resiliency-oriented strategies designed to best manage climate change loss exposures in the most cost-efficient manner.
