CNBC considers sustainability and resilience in the annual America ’s Top States for Business competitiveness rankings.

Climate disasters in the U.S. did nearly $93 billion in damage last year .

Some states are well-equipped to deal with rising risks, but some are not doing all they can to mitigate the risks.

Climate change is having profound effects on The Granite State's environment.

Pennsylvania 's diverse climate poses a diverse set of risks.

The Great Lakes and the Ohio Valley will experience higher temperatures, periods of intense rainfall and flash droughts.

Mississippi has no statewide strategy to deal with the changing climate.

Warmer temperatures are creating more intense storms, causing sea levels to rise, threatening public health, and damaging the state's aging infrastructure.

A Strategic Climate Action Plan championed by Gov Phil Murphy calls for a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 , and an 80% cut by 2050 .

The plan calls for building more resilience across all sectors.
