Hello,<\/p>\n

This (mini) Thread, #5, goes out to over 350\u00a0people today.\u00a0 (previous Threads\u00a0#1<\/a>\u00a0::\u00a0#2<\/a>\u00a0::\u00a0#3<\/a>\u00a0::\u00a0#4<\/a>)<\/p>\n

We have set a\u00a0deadline to present the\u00a0outcomes from our first Constellation project (codename:\u00a0Icebreaker One<\/strong><\/a>)\u00a0in\u00a056\u00a0days<\/strong>\u00a0at the\u00a0UNISDR Global Platform<\/a>\u00a0in Geneva.<\/p>\n

Developing the blueprint for an Open Environmental Risk Standard<\/strong><\/h5>\n

We\u00a0need a better way of making our money work to keep things safe instead of paying for things once they have broken.<\/p>\n

Our capacity to model increasingly complex, non-linear risks is not keeping pace with the frequency and severity of extreme weather events, and the uncertainties and pace of our global development.<\/p>\n

Our challenge is to ask how might we combine the wealth of nations, machines and humans to unlock the $trillions required to create a resilient, low carbon economy.<\/p>\n

This year is\u00a0the 30th anniversary of the Web.\u00a0We are in an unprecedented era: we\u00a0have instrumented the world, connected billions of people, millions of companies and hundreds of countries with the web of data. Learning from open standards, such as the Open Banking Standard,\u00a0we have the opportunity to unlock new, open marketplaces.<\/p>\n

Our programme, codename\u00a0Icebreaker One<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0combines expertise in policy, data\u00a0and business innovation to harness the new tools and infrastructure now available to us, at scale.<\/p>\n
