Climate change could drive US$1.5 trillion in economic losses by 2050, with the world's most disadvantaged regions bearing the brunt. Yet less than 5% of global adaptation finance is currently directed towards health.
The recent report by the World Economic Forum, produced in collaboration with Boston Consulting Group (BCG), sheds light on how we can change this.
‘Building Economic Resilience to the Health Impacts of Climate Change’ explores solutions across food and agriculture, the built environment, healthcare, and insurance to protect workers and communities more broadly.
“Investment in resilience is not just risk management; it’s a catalyst for innovation, cost savings, and sustainable growth,“ comments BwB CEO, Rupesh Madlani.
