CONTENTS
A climate hazard is a climate-related event or condition that could cause damage or disruption to people, assets, or ecosystems. Hazards include floods, droughts, heatwaves, and extreme precipitation.
Example in context
A sustainability team maps exposure to multiple climate hazards, including drought, wildfire, and riverine flooding, across a portfolio of manufacturing sites using Mitiga's climate intelligence platform, EarthScan.
Why it matters
