How Climate Shocks Could Break the Economy | Edmond Rhys Jones | TED
Climate change isn’t just reshaping our planet — it’s also shaking the very foundations of the economy, says sustainability expert Edmond Rhys Jones. He explores the massive gap between what science tells us about the climate crisis and how the economy measures its impact, advocating for economists to borrow tools from science (like simulations and…

The profit and processing of claims within the insurance sector is a peripheral discussion. Remaining in context with this video content, it would be foolish to deny that the insurance sector have the greatest expertise in risk management, they understand fully what the future holds better than most. Risk IS their business!

Mega-corporations profiting off climate change alarmism will break the economy. Politicians pretending to care about environment by pushing to replace fossil-fuel cares with electric cars all the while owning shares in lithium and cobalt mines will also break the economy.
Climate change has been turned into a multi-billion dollar industry where the responsibility has been placed on the individual citizen while politicians, policymakers, lobbyists, and mega-corporations do what they want with impunity.

It was already broken now criminality is passing itself off as some weird brand of normal.
If we had an open market place crude oil could be priced out of business by agriculturally grown competition.
If we were allowed to grow high yeilding hemp plants it wouldn’t even be a competition.

We could solve both the climate bother and the money bin envy, but it’s more about satisfaction. There is even a simple set of mathematical equations called _min & max_ that can talk to you through your phone, so you can share easily with your friends. There-in, lies the rub. Who don’t you want to be friends with ??. most people tuned out and said: “yah, fine, you’re right.” The cripple are contracting new pills 😀 👉😲👉

The good news: you don’t have to spend $Trillions. Businesses, Institutions, Governments (BIG) just have to phaseout fossil extracts at the rate of attrition, as reflected by the rate of depreciation. Zero cost to them; in fact, net gains there because the incumbent is always more expensive to repair, maintain, and increase than nimbler renewables. Zero cost to consumers under Hotelling’s Rule and Wright’s Law: consumables keep going up in price; renewables keep dropping in price. Zero cost to investors, except the ones left holding fossil hot potatoes.

Climate change is already at our doorstep. The question is whether we will reopen the doors for global changes – revising standards and setting new regulations in urban cores to truly streamline the path toward a zero-carbon footprint. Achieving this goal is possible if all elements align with the plan. However, any deviation from strategies aimed at zero emissions will exacerbate climate change, driving temperatures even higher – a challenge that is already difficult to mitigate and stabilize.

I’m a CEO/Founder of a (next-gen) renewable energy startup. When I started I was naive to think that it was all about “transformative technology” – now, 15yrs later, I clearly what’s needed (in my industries) is “transformative economics”… that are fueled by better tech. When talking to ‘financial folks’ and ‘conservative folks’ – who perhaps care less about disruptions in peoples’ lives, I find that talking about these global financial payoffs (in GDP savings) of CleanTech often moves the conversation forward. Unfortunately, I find this speaker (who I thought was fantastic) is absolutely right: There’s not enough discussion about this side of the conversation, *and* the analyses is often incomplete. Given the majority mindset around money, I think this line of work he discusses is SO important – and so missing. I hope he has luck spreading the convo; and that other experts join him.

I’m 53.
I’m expecting societal collapse in 100 years. Animal depopulation has been steady and pretty much consistent over the last two decades. There are countries running out of fresh water. We’re trying to electrify everything while all forms of electrical production are bad for the environment in one way or another. The Oceans are getting warmer and the sea levels are rising, pretty much putting at least 50% of global ports at risk.
The total cost is going to be in the trillions and our political parties cannot agree on even the simplest things. They’ll keep kicking the can down the road until the Ocean floods the Capitol Building.
I just hope to be dead before things really get out of hand.

Climate change isn’t just an environmental issue—it’s a looming economic crisis that will touch nearly every part of our lives. If we keep ignoring the gap between climate science and the way economic risk is modeled, we’re building a financial system that may not be prepared for what’s coming.
What if, instead of focusing mainly on adaptation, we proactively redesigned our economic structures to put sustainability at the center? Could that be the difference between merely enduring climate disruption and actually building a more resilient, thriving future?
It feels like the moment to rethink the default approach—because the cost of inaction is likely to far exceed the investment required to build a safer, more durable system.
