Another completely preventable work zone incident - Our crews put their lives on the line daily to keep NY roads safe for you.

Fortunately, this crew wasn’t seriously injured in this recent incident on I-88 in Otsego County, but it could have been much worse.

Our new report, "Surge: Coastal Resilience and Real Estate" tackles the challenges posed by coastal hazards such as sea level rise, storms, flooding, erosion, and subsidence. It provides best practices, resources, and case studies to help private and public sector professionals, as well as communities, integrate coastal resilience strategies into land use and real estate practices. These strategies equip coastal regions with mechanisms to prevent and recover from climate-related disasters. Explore the report here 🔗: https://lnkd.in/e4JX24Vf #CoastalResilience #ClimateChange

This house floats when the land is flooded… Amphibious houses, designed to float during floods, can be extremely useful in flood-prone areas… They can prevent water damage to property, reduce displacement of residents, and potentially save lives...

Hailstorms are becoming more frequent and severe, causing devastating losses across communities. In 2023, summer hailstorms in Italy accounted for a new record of almost USD 6 billion insured losses, while in France, severe thunderstorms led to more than USD 5 billion in insured hail losses in 2022. How can insurers accurately assess assets at risk and get an estimate of potential hail-related losses before they even occur? Get a comprehensive view of risk and stay prepared for every storm, with CatNet®'s updated hail hazard layer.

Another episode of We Will Retreat. We Are Retreating! In case you missed it, another home went to sea this weekend in Rodanthe. There is another debris stream on the Cape Hatteras National Seashore beach. Another busted septic system. Another beach closure. All from a storm hundreds of miles away generating modest swells. Up and down the coast we have opted for unmanaged retreat rather than admit to ourselves that we cannot possibly hold every shoreline in place, forever. This paralysis will cause economic and environmental harm to a growing number of coastal communities as SLR drives continuing shoreline retreat. We are desperately in search of any coastal resort community that would like to work with us on developing a shoreline management plan that includes strategic retreat from those areas that will not be sustainable over the long run. This is the best way to preserve the coastal economy. We need to stop spending so much time and money on those places that are most vulnerable, and focus on the preservation of larger community. It just makes sense. #PSDS #rodanthe #hurricaneernesto #SLR #maladaptation #coastalretreat
