Preparedness pays off. That’s the key takeaway from a new Climate Resiliency Report from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Allstate, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation. The study revealed that every $1 spent on climate resilience and preparedness saves communities $13 in damages, cleanup costs, and economic impact. 

Why it matters: With weather-related catastrophes increasing in frequency and severity and billion-dollar disasters now the norm, it’s essential for communities to invest in resilience. 

What's next: Join a dynamic conversation among experts this National Preparedness Month that will explore how investments in climate resilience not only reduce disaster costs, but also promote economic growth and stability in communities.

• Marc DeCourcey, Senior Vice President, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation
