In this episode of Disaster Discusssions host Rachael Penton Gauthier sits down with Geotrek's Dr. "Hurricane Hal" Needham to discuss his three-step process for disaster risk assessment that includes the importance of knowing the deep disaster history of a location, identifying the possible risks in a particular neighborhood or region, and understanding how shifts from environmental changes can impact the potential for extreme weather. Plus, how this knowledge can be used to empower communities to better understand their vulnerabilities to natural disasters.
