A newly published report on climate risk and global warming, includes expertise and analysis from an actuary at the 바카라 사이트 Actuary바카라 사이트檚 Department (GAD).
is the second joint report focussed on climate risk from the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) and the University of Exeter. It highlights some research-based findings alongside recommendations for actions to respond to these.
Assess and communicate
The report concludes that risk management techniques should be used to realistically assess and communicate climate change risks more effectively to policymakers. This in turn would support long-term policy decisions and accelerate positive tipping points.
GAD actuary Georgi Bedenham is one of the report바카라 사이트檚 co-authors and a member of the IFoA바카라 사이트檚 Biodiversity Working Party. The report was a collaboration between actuaries and Earth System scientists.
The report put forward 5 key findings based on the latest climate research:
- global warming accelerated in 2023 and may not be temporary
- increased global warming is now driving more severe impacts across the planet
- it바카라 사이트檚 likely we will overshoot the 1.5 degrees Celsius threshold, so we바카라 사이트檒l need to recalibrate carbon budgets
- Earth바카라 사이트檚 climate may be more sensitive to greenhouses gases than previously thought
- further warming increases the risk of triggering multiple climate tipping points

New framework
The report introduces a Planetary Solvency framework which would combine climate, nature, economic and societal risk assessments to assess the ability of nature to continue to provide ecosystem services to society both now and in the future.
