An overview of risk bonds, how they work, and how they are being implemented in the PNW
Brookings Institution has teamed up with researchers at CSE to publish an overview of our work on Fossil Fuel Risk Bond Programs. The report, now online at Brookings.edu provides a summary of the concept, a demonstration of how such programs can be used to raise funding for climate adaptation, and a progress report on how state and local governments in Oregon and Washington are moving forward to implement the concept on-the ground.
