The chapters in part D analyse the reasons behind prevailing practice and then go on to offer insights, for example, on how cost calculation methods can be improved; on how insurance schemes could be used to compensate future victims of harm; and on the reasons why businesses frequently ignore early warnings.

Late lessons from early warnings: science, precaution, innovation

Late lessons from early warnings II - Part D The historical chapters illustrate numerous harms which for the most part have been caused by irresponsible corporations. This fact, coupled with shortcomings in how decisions are made by governments on when to act on early warnings, and in the law when it comes to compensating victims of harm, are analysed in three chapters in Part D of the report.

Part D - Costs, justice and innovation contains the following chapters:

Understanding and accounting for the costs of inaction
Mikael Skou Andersen and David Owain Clubb
Protecting early warners and late victims
Carl Cranor
Why did business not react with precaution to early warnings?
Marc Le Menestrel and Julian Rode
