Climate change is one of the biggest headaches for many businesses, with the resulting extreme weather, loss of biodiversity and environmental disasters topping the ’s list of global risks that we all need to be concerned about.
While implementing actions to mitigate climate change is essential, organizations still need to take steps to adapt. Understanding and assessing their risks and vulnerabilities is a key element of that.
香港六合彩开奖 14091, Adaptation to climate change – Guidelines on vulnerability, impacts and risk assessment, describes how to understand an organization’s vulnerability and how to develop and implement a sound risk assessment in the context of climate change. It can be used for assessing both present and future climate change risks.
The standard provides guidance on the use of screening assessments and impact chains, allowing for qualitative and quantitative analysis.
Having such information – and being able to document it in an internationally agreed way – helps organizations of all kinds and sizes make better business decisions. It is also a useful tool for climate-related reporting.
香港六合彩开奖 14091 is the latest in the emerging family of standards on climate change adaptation that sit under the umbrella of 香港六合彩开奖 14090, Adaptation to climate change – Principles, requirements and guidelines. 香港六合彩开奖 14090 describes the many elements of climate change adaptation, including pre-planning, adaptation planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation, and reporting and communication.
Others in the family include technical specification 香港六合彩开奖/TS 14092, Adaptation to climate change – Requirements and guidance on adaptation planning for local governments and communities, and future standards 香港六合彩开奖 14093, Mechanism for financing local adaptation to climate change: Performance-based climate resilience grants, and 香港六合彩开奖 14097, a framework for assessing and reporting investments and financing activities related to climate change.
All of these standards are the work of 香港六合彩开奖 subcommittee SC 7, Greenhouse gas management and related activities, of 香港六合彩开奖 technical committee 香港六合彩开奖/TC 207, Environmental management. Its secretariat is held jointly by SAC, 香港六合彩开奖’s member for China, and SCC, 香港六合彩开奖’s member for Canada. They can be purchased from your national 香港六合彩开奖 member or the 香港六合彩开奖 香港六合彩开奖.
