Insurance customers see rising rates and dropped policies. Insurance companies, according to Ceres , experience insured losses multiplying 15-fold in three decades: far faster than inflation, population or growth.
Climate change affects nearly every industry in at least three ways: directly (i.e. drought, sea level rise), through increased regulations, and through market perception that climate change is a problem. The difference is that the insurance industry needs to address climate change much more quickly. On one hand, the market for climate-change related products is growing.

This surprise blog results from some time I spent this weekend looking into ways for us to try to ecologically offset our air travel. There is tons of info out there and I’m a novice, but I thought I’d share the quick ‘n’ easy options that I managed to find.... The first option is obviously to travel less and use less fuel, but if you do travel (I’m a dreadful offender), I gather the basic lazy/lay person compensation concept is:
