In support of the critical effort to build a global Resilience Intel collaboration, the Geoversiv Foundation and Citizens’ Climate Education are curating a news magazine on Flipboard called Building Resilience Intelligence (ResilienceIntel.news). The purpose of this publication is to collect in one place a wide range of news about breakthroughs toward a climate-smart future economy.
To provide the cultural, financial-sector, scientific, and multidisciplinary context for the Resilience Intel effort itself, this curated news magazine collects and collates the latest updates on renewable energy trends, carbon risk disclosure, climate-smart finance, and technological breakthroughs that will change the way we monitor and understand interactions between vastly diverse kinds of data.
