About The New Northern

We help organizations understand and manage climate risks. Using data and smart strategies, we give leaders the tools to protect their assets, operations, and growth.

Our Story

I founded The New Northern because too many organizations are unprepared for climate disruption. Extreme weather and environmental shocks are driving mounting, multimillion-dollar losses at the company level and billions in damages across entire industries.

Our philosophy: today’s actions create tomorrow’s success. Climate resilience is business infrastructure, on par with finance, logistics, IT, and cybersecurity. It must be tracked and managed with the same rigor if it’s going to safeguard assets, operations, and returns.

The name “New Northern” reflects a new era of operating risk: escalating losses, pricing volatility, and supply chain instability. For those unprepared, the result is operational disruption, distorted strategy, and declining profitability.The future is uncertain but for the prepared, it’s theirs to lead.

Our Mission

Proactively reducing exposure to extreme weather hazards and natural disasters for our clients.

Our Goal

To prove the profitability and feasibility of climate risk mitigation. We transform risk planning into a measurable driver of long-term business value – safeguarding physical infrastructure, securing supply chains, ensuring employee safety, and giving our clients a clear and actionable roadmap to a future where they thrive.

Our Approach: Expert Guidance Powered by the Canary

We protect complex enterprise footprints from escalating environmental threats. Our methodology maps operational vulnerabilities before they become corporate crises, utilizing Canary—our proprietary risk intelligence engine—to translate broad-spectrum environmental and climate data into clear business meaning and actionable value

Get started

Volatility Identification:

Canary isolates environmental volatility at each specific point of your operation. While generic AI tools rely on broad regional guesswork, Canary focuses directly on the discrete, localized data signals that impact your physical footprint.

Vulnerability Mapping:

Data is meaningless without context. Canary captures your unique vulnerabilities per asset, per hazard, filtering out the noise to identify how escalating threats intersect with your physical infrastructure and logistics networks.

Prioritized Exposure:

Rather than leaving you with an unmanageable list of problems, Canary creates a prioritized exposure list based on operational and financial significance to your organization—giving your team a clear roadmap for proactive defense, operational resilience, and event recovery.
