A Colorado dashboard seeks to put a price on future wildfires, other natural disasters amid a warming climate
Future Avoidance Cost Explorer (FACE:Hazards) is a proactive attempt to explore Colorado’s resiliency in the face of disaster. Dashboard users can view the estimated economic costs of natural hazards under various scenarios out to 2050. They can adjust variables to explore degrees of population growth and climate change, look at economic sectors like agriculture or recreation, and examine the impacts different programs have on disaster resilience.
