You're so right to mention the "S" here. Social injustice is exacerbated by climate exposures and disasters. Addressing this must be part of the broader effort.

If climate mitigation is about rapid technology deployment, climate adaptation is about people. We need to balance the investments here.

A4. By aggressively pursuing partnerships that deploy our respective capabilities in new ways. Anticipatory finance. Community-based catastrophe insurance. Global risk modeling alliance. All need to be scaled. We're facing one of those tests of challenge & controversy. #MMChats

A5. As every expert will tell you start with basic awareness. But clearly that isn’t enough. We also need enhanced intelligence sharing, public-private risk sharing mechanisms, heightened protections for critical infrastructure and a host of other actions. #MMChats #Risks23

A7. Massively. Extreme heat alone is already an epidemic and its impact will only grow (h/t @ArshtRock report below).And as the relationship between climate and nature becomes transparent I suspect we’ll see regional viruses begin to migrate to new geographies #MMChats #Risks23

A8. First, understand which risks affect you most. Second, understand how those risks are affected by other risks. And third, with this new wider aperture take a system-level view of how you can mitigate exposures – individually and in partnership with others. #MMChats #Risks23

I smiled reading this on the tram heading to #cop28. Anyone working for Mercer or the broader Marsh McLennan family should be proud of the all-in team effort we’re making here. 40+ speaking roles, including two by our CEO just today.
