Physical Risk and Resilience Tool

Analyze exposure, vulnerability, and impairment/loss/damage

The Climate Impact Risk Assessment (CIRA) Tool quantifies and visualizes potential physical, economic, and financial risk and impacts on communities, real assets, and businesses.

CIRA Tool Overview

CIRA also addresses transition risk—negative economic, financial, and socioeconomic impacts due to changes in policies, regulations, markets, and technologies—while identifying related opportunities. Future versions will enable highly detailed transition analysis of specific industries and policies. The combined transition and physical scenario analysis will significantly improve planning and investment for socially just, sustainable economic development.
