摘要

A top investment strategist for J.P. Morgan Asset Management sent a note to clients earlier this year with a dire forecast. Despite global efforts to stop climate change, sea levels are likely to rise dramatically, threatening the 40 percent of Americans who live along the coast.On the other hand, there will probably be some investment opportunities in sea walls."A storm surge barrier system protecting New York City and parts of New Jersey could cost $2.7 million per meter," Michael Cembalest, the firm's chairman of market and investment strategy, wrote in his annual Eye on the Market energy newsletter in April. He added that governments would probably struggle to pay that cost, perhaps turning to either bonds or outright privatization.As the U.S. grapples with a second straight year of record hurricanes, floods, and wildfires, a small but growing number of hedge funds, pension plans, and other investors are testing strategies to take advantage of those signs of climate change. Where they're putting their money provides a glimpse into some of the likely tangible impacts from higher temperatures. The investments include storm and flood protection along the coast, desalination plants in drought-prone regions, new approaches to agriculture, and even land far from the ocean for when rising seas shift the real estate market. "In the early stages, people will be nervous," says Cembalest, who calls himself an advocate for better flood control. "And the returns will be higher."

Morgan Asset Management)的一位顶级投资策略师于今年早些时候向客户发送了一封说明,并给出了可怕的预测。尽管全球为阻止气候变化做出了努力,但海平面仍可能急剧上升,威胁到沿海地区40%的美国人。另一方面,海堤可能会有一些投资机会。保护纽约市和新泽西州的部分地区每米造价为270万美元,”该公司市场与投资策略主席Michael Cembalest在4月份的年度《市场之眼》能源通讯中写道。他补充说,各国政府可能会难以支付这笔费用,可能转向债券或完全私有化。随着美国连续第二年遭遇创纪录的飓风,洪水和野火,对冲基金,养老金计划的数量却在不断增加,其他投资者正在测试策略,以利用这些气候变化的迹象。他们将钱投入何处,可以一窥高温带来的一些可能的明显影响。这些投资包括沿海的风暴和洪水防护,干旱多发地区的海水淡化厂,新的农业生产方法,甚至是当海洋上升改变房地产市场时,远离海洋的土地。 Cembalest说:“在早期,人们会感到紧张。”他自称是更好的防洪倡导者。 “而且回报会更高。”
