Climate change is causing the risk of floods, fires, and storms to skyrocket in many areas across the US, leading insurance companies to drastically increase premiums, or withdraw their coverage altogether.
This year, an insurance company stopped selling new home insurance in the entire state of California due to costs around natural disasters.
Countless homeowners are being forced to relocate or face financial ruin, and the problem has gotten so bad that multiple government officials are launching inquiries into the situation.
The U.S. Treasury Department is one of the entities launching an inquiry, announcing that they plan to collect data on where premiums are skyrocketing.
It’s essential that we get to the bottom of how insurance companies are dealing with climate change — for so many American families, their home is the bedrock of their family’s financial stability. If it isn’t taken seriously, this issue will spell widespread financial ruin for millions of Americans.
