The next climate war? Statecraft, security, and weaponization in the geopolitics of a low-carbon future

Benjamin K. Sovacool et al.

Summary: The impacts of global climate change on international security and geopolitics could be of historic proportion, challenging those of previous global threats such as nuclear weapons proliferation, the Great Depression, and terrorism. But while the evidence surrounding the security impacts of climate change is fairly well-understood and improving, less is known about the security risks to climate-technology deployment.

Developing a Holistic Resilience Framework for Critical Infrastructure Networks of Buildings and Communities in Saudi Arabia

Saleh H. H. Alyami et al.

Summary: Cities worldwide are recognizing the importance of building resilience to tackle various forces such as disasters, environmental degradation, urban sprawl, and climate change. This study focuses on spatially analyzing and developing a comprehensive resilience framework for critical infrastructure networks (CINs) in Saudi Arabia. The research involves a case study of Najran, compiling CIN data, history of natural disasters, and potential hazards. Results show that CINs in Najran performed below average, highlighting the need for improvements in terms of robustness, redundancy, and flexibility. The study proposes a holistic framework for resilient criteria that should be considered by city governors, policymakers, and developers for better infrastructure management and future development.

Climate change preparedness across sectors of the built environment-A review of literature

Anna C. Hurlimann et al.

Summary: This paper reviews the barriers and facilitators of climate change action in the built environment sectors and finds a limited understanding of climate change preparedness across these sectors. These findings are important as the lack of understanding may hinder the achievement of global climate goals and result in significant social and economic impacts. The reviewed research lacks a holistic and integrated view of the built environment and climate change action within it.

Climate change impacts to the coastal flood hazard in the northeastern United States

Talea L. Mayo et al.

Summary: Climate change not only leads to sea level rise and increased coastal flood hazards but also has significant implications for hurricane climatology. Studies suggest that hurricanes may increase in intensity, size, and translation speed due to climate change. These changes have significant implications for coastal flood hazards, particularly in densely populated regions like the U.S. Northeast. Therefore, it is important to conduct local, detailed, and comprehensive flood hazard assessments considering the impacts of climate change on sea level and tropical storm climatology.

The impact of climate change management on banks profitability

Jerome Caby et al.

Summary: This study empirically examines the influence of climate change management on banks' profitability. The findings indicate that while banks are aware of the consequences of climate change on their business, they remain conservative in their operational implementation. However, the anticipated introduction of new banking regulations and the current weak relationship between climate change management practices and financial performance should encourage banks to pay greater attention to these practices.

Climate Adaptive Response Estimation: Short and long run impacts of climate change on residential electricity and natural gas consumption

Maximilian Auffhammer

Summary: This paper proposes a simple two-step estimation method called CARE to estimate sectoral climate damage functions with long-term adaptation. The paper applies this method to residential electricity and natural gas demand in California and shows that failing to account for extensive margin adjustment leads to a significant underestimate of future impacts on electricity consumption.

Climate change impact on snow loads in northern Europe

Oskar Larsson Ivanov et al.

Summary: Ongoing and future climate change will have implications for the design of structures in high latitudes and elevations, particularly in relation to snow load. While a warmer climate may lead to a reduction in snow cover, its impact on extreme events is uncertain. The study shows that future snow loads can be projected with reasonable accuracy, but there is significant variability that needs to be considered in structural design.
