New “risk triage” platform pinpoints compounding threats to US infrastr...

MIT Center for Sustainability Science and Strategy

As climate change amplifies the frequency and intensity of hurricanes and other extreme events in the United States and around the world, and the populations and economies they threaten grow and change, there is a critical need to make infrastructure more resilient. A new "risk triage" platform developed by the MIT Joint Program could help decision-makers to take action to mitigate and adapt to multiple, compounding risks that face the nation.(Source: Severe Weather Europe)
