WATCH a new short film “An uninsurable future?”
Facing the future of insurance in a world enduring climate breakdown.
Climate risks are rising so fast that insurers are already retreating. Entire regions of the world are becoming harder to insure - in some cases, impossible. An uninsurable world isn’t just a future scenario. We’re already living its early stages.
If you work in the insurance industry or close by, you’re likely already noticing the impacts of global climate breakdown – or you soon will. The question is, why are so few people talking publicly about the true scale of risk we face, or what it would take to respond?
We’ll never get the change we need, if we can’t name the trouble we’re in. There are steps you can take today, to help your industry confront this critical threat…
