In August 1900, Galveston Island, Texas suffered the worst natural disaster in U.S. history, with over 10,000 killed in a single hurricane. This crisis could have been largely avoided except for the flaws in human nature that we see bringing continual losses in the stock market over the past century. Here are the life lessons from the Galveston hurricane that apply to investing and should be avoided if you want to be successful. https://lnkd.in/gdh5SRPP

Read my latest report for The Conference Board ESG Center, on how leading companies are responding to #naturaldisasters. #disaster #philanthropy #csr #socialimpact #corporatecitizenship #esg
Wildfires in Maui. Hurricane Idalia in Tampa. Tropical storm Hilary in California. They are just a few of the events in today’s era of #naturaldisasters, with 2023 poised to be a record year for US climate and weather catastrophes. While 61% of US companies have raised their total philanthropy giving for natural disasters levels in recent years, fewer than half are conducting planning exercises to prepare for future disasters. 🌀 🔥 Read our new report, produced in collaboration with E4E Relief, to learn more about Corporate America’s #disasterphilanthropy practices: https://lnkd.in/e6SbGGeP
