Can Coastal Cities Turn the Tide on Rising Flood Risk?
Year: 2020 Language: english Author: McKinsey Global Institute Genre: Research papers Publisher: McKinsey Global Institute Edition: 1st ed. Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 30 Description: In January 2020, the McKinsey Global Institute published Climate risk and response: Physical hazards and socioeconomic impacts. In that report, we measured the impact of climate change by the extent to which it could affect human beings, human-made physical assets, and the natural world. In order to link physical climate risk to socioeconomic impact, we investigated nine specific cases that illustrated exposure to climate change extremes and proximity to physical thresholds. We explored risks today and over the next three decades and examined specific cases to understand the mechanisms through which climate change leads to increased socioeconomic risk. This is one of our case studies, focused on city inundation.
