Not an expert. I am curious though. I work at the intersection of affordable housing & climate and insurance costs are threatening the preservation of affordable housing.
I spent a lot of hours doing a deep dive on their flood hazard model and... did not feel I learned much for it, although I was marginally better able to answer questions about it (methods are not actually very clear from the report). Coupling it to a "climate migration" model is... something
Would be interested to see any conclusions you come to.
I'm on the policy side of things (def not a scientist) but I've been wondering about FSF's methodology ever since reading this article that questioned their peer review process.
