AIG is First Insurer to Tackle Climate Change E-mail
Written by Thomas Chenoweth   
Tuesday, 13 February 2007
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.
