Make Adaptation Happen - A Manifesto

|

Dr Oliver Marchand

Climate losses are accelerating, but adaptation investment is not keeping pace. In Make Adaptation Happen, a manifesto published with Climate Proof, we examine the chokepoint holding adaptation back: the data-to-action gap that leaves practitioners unable to compare, defend, or fund the measures they need. The paper introduces AdaptationReturn, our decision metric for quantifying the full return of an adaptation investment before it is built.

Podcast

When adaptation managers approach funders with a climate-proofing measure, there's one question they can count on hearing: "What's the return on this investment?"

It's a question that Oliver Marchand is determined to answer. If you're an adaptation practitioner, wannabe adaptech founder, or work in climate finance, this is an episode you don't want to miss.

Spitäler im Hitzestress Eine evidenzbasierte Anpassungsanalyse für den Kanton Zürich

Research Paper

Ein gemeinsamer Bericht von Resilens und CLIMADA Technologies zur Hitzebelastung an 39 Zürcher Spitalstandorten. Die Studie analysiert das Risikoprofil bis 2080, identifiziert die am stärksten betroffenen Zielgruppen und vergleicht sieben Anpassungsmassnahmen hinsichtlich Wirtschaftlichkeit und Fehlanpassungsrisiko.
