Description
First Street Foundation operates as a non-profit entity focused on measuring and conveying climate risk across the United States. Utilizing sophisticated climate science and engineering techniques, the organization delivers in-depth evaluations of a range of environmental threats, such as flooding, wildfires, wind, extreme heat, and air quality. The foundation's goal is to make climate risk not only accessible but also simple to comprehend and actionable for individuals, governments, and businesses alike. By providing thorough data and insightful analysis, First Street Foundation seeks to connect climate change with financial risk, facilitating better decision-making and proactive approaches to risk management. Their hazard models are meticulously crafted and undergo peer review to ensure accuracy. These models encompass various types of flooding (including surge, pluvial, fluvial, and tidal), hurricane wind impacts, wildfire dynamics (like ember flux and flame length), instances of extreme heat, and air quality concerns (specifically ozone and PM2.5 levels). This comprehensive approach empowers stakeholders to understand their vulnerabilities in the face of a changing climate.
