      You’d think that insurance companies would be on the forefront of pushing climate change mitigation and prevention specifically because the impacts of worsening climate change will have a massive impact on their bottom line.

      Maybe they can counter some of the petro company propaganda with their own marketing.

            And that’s when you’ll start seeing the property insurance industry suddenly really give a shit about climate change.
