Climate information for the future | UNDRR

Climate information saves lives. Weather forecasts and climate scenarios both give insights into the conditions that lie ahead. However, they differ in their precision and the time frame they cover. In this video, you will learn how comprehensive risk management approaches use different timescales to provide the most accurate climate information. This information helps provide early warnings and suggests actions to reduce risks. With this knowledge, we can act to protect communities, saving lives and livelihoods. Read UNDRR's "Technical guidance on application of climate information for comprehensive risk management" publication for more information.

About UNDRR:
The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) has a big ambition: to help decision-makers across the globe better understand and act on risk. At UNDRR, we believe there is no such thing as a natural disaster. A natural hazard, such as a hurricane, earthquake, or flood, only becomes a disaster when it impacts a community that is not adequately protected and whose population is vulnerable as a result of poverty, exclusion, or social disadvantage. We envision a world where disasters no longer threaten the well-being of people and the future of the planet. Sustainable development and the 2030 Agenda cannot be achieved without working towards the goal of building resilience.
