<abstract displayLabel="Summary">2011 brought devastating natural catastrophes to the Asia-Pacific region. What lessons can be learned and are the more frequent and more intense weather-related events forerunners of climate change? Can an answer be found in the world's largest natural catastrophe database? Prof Peter Hoppe of Munich Re's Geo Risks Research unit reviews the past year and considers the necessary steps ahead. </abstract>
