Agenda for Change 2016: climate change, disaster mitigation and resilience (Paul Barnes, ASPI The Strategist)

Natural and technical disasters are a major strategic security challenge. Deloitte Access Economics’ Building resilient infrastructure report estimates that in 2015 the total economic cost of natural disasters in Australia exceeded $9 billion. That figure is expected to rise to an average yearly cost of $33 billion by 2050 due to population growth, increased infrastructure density and migration to vulnerable regions
