We interviewed Katie MacDonald of Tailwind for our June Gist about #climateadaptation. This week, the Tailwind team launched the Adaptation and Resilience Innovation Playbook. As she emphasized in our interview, the adaptation side of climate requires more investment, innovation, and action to make communities and the economy resilient to intensifying climate impacts. This report provides a status update on the state of this ecosystem and tangible recommendations on what we can all do to grow it. Check out the playbook here: https://lnkd.in/e3asPnsv Read our interview with Katie here: https://lnkd.in/gTA3SWyN #climateadaptation #climatetech #climateresilience

A really profound and down-to-earth article on where we're at: the old climate won’t return, but adaptation is an investment in the future. For industries, it’s not just survival - it’s modernization and economic opportunities. Appreciate the share from my fellows at Terra.do #FutureOfWork #AdaptationTech #ClimateResilience https://lnkd.in/e55GSU9a

Excited to share a project I contributed to, and our latest report on global climate change adaptation, risk and resilience. Dive into our key insights and strategies to explore how we're shaping a more resilient future in the face of critical climate challenges. #climatepolicy #adaptation #climateresilience
In other news, Deloitte and the team supporting are very excited to share that this week we launched our Climate Change Adaptation, Risk and Resilience Global Snapshot report this week! In it, you can learn how sectors and geographies are tackling these wicked but crucial challenges. Our analysis shows that risk and adaptation maturity is further progressed than resilience maturity - an interesting, though not unexpected finding. We are not as resilient to the impacts of climate change as we might like to think! #optimismbias And so, there's a lot to be done to help protect and support economies, communities, their infrastructure, our natural resources. Our team, led by myself, Zak Baillie and Jerry Johnston, worked with and across our global network to pull this information together, and it was a real pleasure to learn of the innovative work, and climate risk opportunities, occurring in other jurisdictions. Climate risks (and opportunities) - both physical and transition - are now with us. Adaptation and resilience maturity are key to how you can optimise economic, environmental, social and infrastructure outcomes for the people and entities that you care about. What's your next #CARRmove? I'd love to hear from you!

Climate Adaptation Funding!! Global Innovation Fund's has an open call for applications for climate resilience projects. #climateresilience #climateadaptation #innovators #scalable #climatehazards #climaterisks #vulnerability #impact #scalable #naturebasedsolutions #nbs #agricultureandfoodsecurity #urbanresilience #watersecurity #earlywarning system
The Global Innovation Fund is pleased to announce a dedicated call for applications for funding from innovators working to enable the world's poorest to adapt and be more resilient to changing climate. #Innovation is urgently needed to build #resilience to increasing incidences of heat waves, droughts, flood and extreme storms, and to adapt to high sea levels and less reliable rainfall. The greatest needs are within low-income countries and populations, whose exposure is greatest and coping capacity often the lowest. Under our Innovating for Climate Resilience Fund, GIF is backing a portfolio of #solutions with the potential to bring significant adaptation and resilience benefits to people living on less than $5 a day. We currently welcome applications for investment in innovations which have the potential to address critical #climate challenges for people living on less than $5 a day, have a credible case, ideally backed by evidence, of how the innovation can deliver #adaptation and resilience, and have the potential to scale to bring benefits to millions of people. For this open window, we welcome applications aligned with our key thematic areas that have the potential to create meaningful, long-term impacts. While we provide examples of the problems the innovations should address, we strongly encourage applicants to propose original, context-specific ideas that align with these themes. Interested applicants are encouraged to review the funding guidance and submit their application before the window closes on 15th January 2025 at 23:59.

I help countries develop high-impact sustainable solutions that have a domino effect on economic growth and the environment | Market Systems Development |SDG 1| Researcher- PhD (Bioremediation)
Are climate adaptation initiatives just a waste of money? Experts reveal the 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗧𝗛. Climate change is no longer a "maybe." It is here, and its effects are being felt around the world. While the challenges are real, a growing movement of businesses is finding success through adaptation. 𝗟𝗲𝘁'𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝗯𝘂𝗻𝗸 𝗮 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Climate adaptation initiatives are not just a trendy buzzword. They are a strategic investment, a proactive measure that fortifies your business and our world against future uncertainties. 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝗸: Studies show adaptation efforts can generate benefits that outweigh costs by 6 to 1. This means that for every $1 invested in adaptation measures, there's a potential return of $6 in avoided losses and economic gains. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗣𝗖𝗖: Early, well-planned adaptation actions are significantly cheaper than reactive measures after disasters strike. 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗘𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗲: Climate adaptation measures could lead to a $7.1 trillion opportunity in green investment by 2030. 𝗨𝗡𝗘𝗣 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁: $1.8 trillion globally in five areas (early warning systems, climate-resilient infrastructure, improved dry land agriculture, mangrove protection, and water resources resilience) could generate net benefits worth $7.1 trillion from 2020 to 2030. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗺 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲? Climate adaptation is not merely a survival strategy; it's a gateway to new horizons, a tool to gain a competitive edge, and a pathway to a future where we all can flourish. What do you think about this? And what is your industry doing to adapt to climate change?
