Público ISBD Título : Realising the 'Triple Dividend of Resilience' : A New Business Case for Disaster Risk Management Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Swenja Surminski ; SpringerLink (Online service) ; Thomas Tanner Editorial: Cham : Springer International Publishing Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: Climate Risk Management, Policy and Governance, ISSN 2510-1390 Número de páginas: XIV, 176 p. 28 illus., 26 illus. in color Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-3-319-40694-7 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Climate  change  Natural  disasters  Environmental  economics  Economics  Change/Climate  Change  Impacts  Management  and  Policy  Hazards Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: Why aren't we investing more in disaster resilience, despite the rising costs of disaster events? This book argues that decision-makers in governments, businesses, households, and development agencies tend to focus on avoiding losses from disasters, and perceive the return on investment as uncertain - only realised if a somewhat unlikely disaster event actually happens. This book develops a new business case for investment based on the multiple dividends of resilience. This looks beyond only avoided losses (the first dividend) to the wider benefits gained independently of whether or not the disaster event occurs. These include unleashing entrepreneurial activities and productive investments by lowering the looming threat of losses from disasters and enabling businesses, farmers and homeowners to take positive risks (the second dividend); and co-benefits of resilience measures beyond just disaster risk (the third dividend), such as flood embankments in Bangladesh that double as roads, or wetlands in Colombo that reduce urban heat extremes Nota de contenido: Chapter 1.
