This shift from mitigation to adaptation promises to change company strategy while building&nbsp;value for business.&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As blizzards pummel North America and rivers across France flood,&nbsp;we see&nbsp;the importance of protecting our infrastructure and ensuring resilient supply chains clearer than ever.&nbsp;Companies&nbsp;are&nbsp;recognizing&nbsp;that the time to rethink&nbsp;operations and incorporate&nbsp;climate risks&nbsp;is now. In conversations with leaders from across industries, I&nbsp;have been&nbsp;hearing about the&nbsp;necessity&nbsp;of building resilience into our systems and design processes. This takes many forms \u2013 from diversifying supply chains&nbsp;and&nbsp;updating our risk models to creating&nbsp;tailored&nbsp;crisis management plans. Mitigation is no longer sufficient \u2013 we need to adapt&nbsp;to our&nbsp;new&nbsp;climate reality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This priority comes through clearly in&nbsp;Capgemini\u2019s recent&nbsp;engineering and R&amp;D trends survey, which breaks down what business leaders are thinking and&nbsp;what&nbsp;actions they are taking&nbsp;today. This survey also helps highlight the power of a forward-thinking vision to transform business operations for the 21<sup>st<\/sup>&nbsp;century, turning climate-driven risks into business opportunities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-addressing-growing-climate-risks-nbsp-nbsp\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Addressing growing climate risks&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, intensifying climate risks&nbsp;are&nbsp;creating volatility for businesses. Extreme weather events are becoming more frequent, posing danger to global infrastructure and threatening disruptions to supply chains.&nbsp;A study by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) estimates that, by 2049, climate change could cost the global economy approximately&nbsp;$38 trillion&nbsp;annually, with a projected range between&nbsp;$19 trillion&nbsp;and&nbsp;$59 trillion.&nbsp;At the same time,&nbsp;businesses&nbsp;are scrambling to keep up with&nbsp;new&nbsp;environmental&nbsp;regulations at&nbsp;both&nbsp;national and international levels.&nbsp;Market expectations fluctuate continually amid these other factors, affecting business outlooks.&nbsp;For executives, the most pressing concerns are&nbsp;maintaining&nbsp;operations during extreme weather events (76%); sourcing materials or parts (74%); and meeting regulatory and disclosure requirements (73%).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In&nbsp;our&nbsp;recent&nbsp;engineering&nbsp;and&nbsp;R&amp;D trends survey, we talked to executives about how climate risks are&nbsp;impacting&nbsp;their business outlooks. 69% of those interviewed cited supply chain disruptions as a major risk, with infrastructure damage and loss close behind.&nbsp;Raw material scarcity, energy insecurity,&nbsp;and water scarcity&nbsp;also&nbsp;featured as primary concerns. These risks&nbsp;already impact&nbsp;businesses today. The question is how to respond.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-building-resilient-systems-nbsp\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Building resilient systems<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although these climate-driven challenges present serious risks to the business world, they also&nbsp;represent&nbsp;an opportunity to transform engineering and R&amp;D strategies and operations.&nbsp;Companies can already start&nbsp;to prepare&nbsp;by investing in&nbsp;resilient materials, systems,&nbsp;and product designs&nbsp;that can withstand environmental stress.&nbsp;Installing smart systems to track and&nbsp;optimize&nbsp;water and energy usage, designing early warning systems,&nbsp;and&nbsp;creating&nbsp;strategic redundancies can ensure continuity in business operations even after extreme weather events.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Teams must look to build new capabilities to respond to these risks. Scenario modeling allows businesses to plan for unforeseen events like rising material costs or supply chain disruptions from the first stages of any new project. Climate-informed design standards can&nbsp;enable&nbsp;resilience by accounting for larger temperature ranges, heavier rainfall,&nbsp;and increased exposure to wind and other weather conditions. And cross-functional collaboration with finance, risk, and strategy teams can help ensure that businesses can stay flexible and adaptable as conditions&nbsp;evolve.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Driving sustainable transformation<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adaptation and resilience are necessities in a new global business context,&nbsp;and&nbsp;they&nbsp;represent&nbsp;an opportunity for innovation.&nbsp;New design&nbsp;principles that account for climate risk in projects can bring&nbsp;knock-on benefits.&nbsp;For example, creating more efficient industrial processes can lessen energy and material intensity, while also cutting costs. Shifting to renewable energy to power business operations decreases emissions and can shore up local energy security. In general, building adaptable systems can create long-term strategic flexibility for businesses, enabling us to respond quickly to new circumstances.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know&nbsp;that&nbsp;leaders in&nbsp;today\u2019s&nbsp;complex&nbsp;environment&nbsp;face serious obstacles&nbsp;in&nbsp;addressing the risks of climate-related events, but we have the necessary tools to build a more adaptable,&nbsp;resilient&nbsp;and innovative future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the rest of our&nbsp;<em><a
