I fail to see how this is at all dystopian. Rather the opposite really.

The service isn't. The fact that it is needed/useful is.

Not really, climate is a natural part of earth. Every place has a risk level for various events, be is drought, wild fires, flooding, volcanoes, hurricane and tornadoes, etc.

Even without humans present, given enough time, every place will suffer catastrophic conditions for the life living there eventually.

Maybe I'm missing something from your perspective?

the forecasted severity of those risks in the future

I understand that as changes in risk severity due to the climate catastrophe. Climate used to be kinda stable (at least over a human life time).
