“…Further, renters have little to no control over the decision to rebuild, and are at much greater risk of temporary and permanent displacement (Burby, Steinberg, & Basolo, 2003). Traditionally, recovery funds have been targeted almost exclusively to property owners, with little if any attention given to the rights of renters to return (Rodriguez-Dod & Duhart, 2007).…”

“…Thus, higher income is associated with higher preparedness levels partly because it enables households to afford to take such actions (Mishra & Suar, 2007;Murphy, Cody, Frank, Glik, & Ang, 2009;Phillips, Metz, & Nieves, 2005). Also, homeowners are more likely to be prepared than renters (Burby, Steinberg, & Basolo, 2003;Siegel, Shoaf, Afifi, & Bourque, 2003;Spittal, McClure, Siegert, & Walkey, 2008). Having invested more time and money in constructing their homes and household goods, homeowners have stronger ties with the property and place of residence while those who rent are more mobile and less focused on the long-term horizon (Harvatt et al, 2011).…”

This study aims at understanding the role of education in promoting disaster preparedness. Strengthening resilience to climate-related hazards is an urgent target of Goal 13 of the Sustainable Development Goals. Preparing for a disaster such as stockpiling of emergency supplies or having a family evacuation plan can substantially minimize loss and damages from natural hazards. However, the levels of household disaster preparedness are often low even in disaster-prone areas. Focusing on determinants of personal disaster preparedness, this paper investigates: (1) pathways through which education enhances preparedness; and (2) the interplay between education and experience in shaping preparedness actions. Data analysis is based on face-to-face surveys of adults aged ≥15 years in Thailand (N = 1,310) and the Philippines (N = 889, female only). Controlling for socio-demographic and contextual characteristics, we find that formal education raises the propensity to prepare against disasters. Using the KHB method to further decompose the education effects, we find that the effect of education on disaster preparedness is mainly mediated through social capital and disaster risk perception in Thailand whereas there is no evidence that education is mediated through observable channels in the Philippines.

Racial disparities in U.S. climate migration

Floods are increasingly frequent and severe due to climate change, thereby impacting migration within the United States. Considering that Black and Brown populations are disproportionately exposed to floods, less likely to receive disaster-related government funds, and vulnerable during subsequent displacement, an examination of differences in migration patterns across racial/ethnic groups is critical. The prevailing conjecture is that after floods, Black and Brown populations will migrate while White ones remain in place. We test this hypothesis by examining the effect of floods on migration across all U.S. county-pairs between 2006-2016 and find that this hypothesis is incorrect: generally, after floods Black populations remain in place and White populations migrate. However, this pattern reverses when the Federal Emergency Management Agency provides financial support. Notably, migration by Hispanic and Asian populations is not significantly affected by floods. These results provide the first evidence of racial disparities in climate migration.
