Imagine if you could just type in an address and instantly receive a ful l resilience risk report for any property in the U.S.\n\nRiskFootprint\, d eveloped by company Coastal Risk Consulting\, looks at 14 types of risk\, including wildfire\, pluvial (extreme rainfall) and fluvial (riverine) flo oding\, earthquakes\, and wind\, plus 2050 climate impacts like extreme he at\, rainfall\, and drought.\n\nA LEED-certified building currently doesn ’t have to take any of these risks into account\, despite the fact that they threaten an asset’s durability and lifetime. To fully understand a project’s sustainability\, we need to stop looking only at what our buil dings are doing to the planet\, he said\, and also start taking into accou nt what the planet might do to our buildings.\n\nSpeaker(s): Albert J.
