1. Introduction
Recently, climate change issues are perceived as a major threat
since a number of studies have been published to prove
abnormal climate change. However, skeptics criticized it for
reasons such as development logic, political tendency, and
insufficient scientific evidence.
From this point of view, using Big data for securing relevant
data has great potential in terms of reflecting policy through
coordination of opinions on climate change, systematic data
analysis and forecasting(Kim et al., 2015; Hamed et al., 2015;
Jang & Hart, 2015; Boussalis & Coan, 2016)

4. 1. Introduction
International trend in response to climate change is being
reorganized into a risk management system that predicts and
manages urcertain future losses
• Climate change risk is universally recognized as a function of probabilities and
consequences of clmate change and serves as a basis for setting priorties for
climate change adaptation policy implementation
4
Past climate change risk assessments have been based on
qualitative assessment studes by expert surveys because of the
difficulty of measuring and predicting the extent of climate
change risks
In this paper, we aim to evaluate the risk of climate change by
using big data analysis (text-mining) based on newspaper
articles in terms of securing objectivity of climate change risk
assessment and suggest implications for adaptation measures
1.1. Background and Goal
5. 1. Introduction
1.2. Scope and Methodologies
This study aims to present the climate change adaptation policy
implication by analyzing the consequence and the possibilities
(frequency) of each climate risk item
Division Contents
Climate change risk
item
181 climate change risk items in seven categories of health
(HE), water (WA), forest ecosystem (ES), land and coastal
land (LC), industrial energy (IE), agriculture and
livestock(AG), marine fisheries (MF) (ex: ‘Increased hazard
due to harmful substances’, ‘Increased marine garbage
caused by coastal flooding’ etc) from expert survey and
elicitation
Climate observation
impact data
4,150 newspaper articles related with climate change
impact over 24 years, since 1990(1990.1.1~2013.12.31)
5
6. 1. Introduction
Using climate change impact newspaper articles (4,150 cases) as
analytical data, the contents of newspaper articles are recorded
as property damage (billion units) or the number of causaulties
(including missing individuals)
In the selected newspaper articles, matching with 181 risk items
from the previous study was processed (Park et al., 2014)
The frequency with which the risk item was matched was set as
‘probability’, and the damage amount was set as
‘consequences’(mean value of matched items)
The calculation of matching tasks and finding out risk
consequences (damage amount) by each newspaper article was
performed by using Python program
The comprehensive risk assessment is derived by multiplying
the consequences (damage amount) and frequency of each risk
item

2.1. Climate Change Risk and Climate Adaptation
Risk refers to the potential to lose something of value, where
value includes physical health, social status, emotional
happiniess or economic security: damage, loss, negativity, or
threats caused by vulnerability
Climate change risk is understood as the potential to lose
something of value due to climate change
• Risk = Vulnerability * Exposure * Hazard
• Risk = Probability * Consequence (damage amount, causalties, etc)
Climate change risks are directly linked to adaptation, which is
one of the direction of climate change response
• Climate change risk analysis can be as an intermediate step for
improving climate change adaptation policy effectiveness and
minimizing uncertainty

11. 2. Literature Review
2.2. Related research review
Climate change risk studies have increased significantly as
climate change ‘adapatation’ becomes more important
• Studies on the value calculation based on climate change risk index
or modeling (Bowering et al., 2010; Morsch, 2010; Lung et al., 2013;
Veronesi et al., 2014)
• Socioeconomic risk assessment studies (Carlton and Jacobson, 2013;
Van der Linden, 2015)
• Risk assessment by expert survey or elicitation (Defra, 2012; Park et
al., 2014; Kim, 2015)
The main purpose of this risk assessment is to quantify the risk
by probability, standardized score, loss amount, etc., and to
suggest effective policy direction for awareness of the problem
consciousness and risk reduction
However, due to the difficulty in obtaining data on climate
change risks and the uncertainty of future forecasts, there are
many limitations in quantifying risks

12. 3. Results
3.1. Climate Change Risk Assessment Using Newspaper Articles
As a result of investigating the number of risk cases (shown
damage amount or causalties by each newspaper article), 3,098
out of 4,150 of the total analysis articles were about 74.7%
It was found that up to five climate change risk items were
matched by the impact of climate change observation (each
newspaper article) with 181 climate change risk items
The risk assessment values were compiled in descending order
by the risk consequence (damage amount: billion units) and
frequency (the number of matching newspaper articles per risk)
• The maximum amount of damages per one case was 5,388.7 billion,
and the maximum amount of damage by the average value of risk
was 2,693.6 billion
• Other major risk items include ‘erosion of agricultural land due to
increased precipitation’, ‘increase in mortality rate from disaster’, etc.

High overlapped percent between climate change adaptation

18. 5. Conclusion
5. Conclusion
This study derived the climate change risk value based on the
observed influence data (newspaper articles) and suggested
adaptation policy implications
The comparison of the climate change risk items derived from
previous study and the newspaper articles on climate change
impacts shows a high impact on observation, but some cases
are not selected as climate change risk items
The frequency of risk matching for events or damage centered
on the human system was much higher than the impact on the
natural system
Comparison of risk results by observed impacts and previous
related study (Primary and secondary risk differentiation)
This study can be used to provide objectivity in presenting
climate change risk items and it will be reflected in the
adaptation measures in parall with the existing survey method
