At least five large U.S. property insurers — including Allstate, American Family, Nationwide, Erie Insurance Group and Berkshire Hathaway — have told regulators that extreme weather patterns caused by climate change have led them to stop writing coverages in some regions, exclude protections from various weather events and raise monthly premiums and deductibles.

Major insurers say they will cut out damage caused by hurricanes, wind and hail from policies underwriting property along coastlines and in wildfire country, according to a voluntary survey conducted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, a group of state officials that regulates rates and policy forms.

U.S. insurers have disbursed $295.8 billion in natural disaster claims over the past three years, according to international risk management firm Aon. That’s a record for a three-year period, according to the American Property Casualty Insurance Association.

LOL.....I knew it would not be long before insurance companies would use the excuse of "climate change" to deny coverage....You dems happy now? Your grift scheme has caught-up with you.

Yep, CC's the new lawyer catch-all escape clause.

”See your honor, since the storm was the result of ‘climate change’ and the plaintiff drives an SUV, it’s essentially negligence on the part of the plaintiff and therefore self inflicted.”

And you know what?

Absolutely. They refuse small claims now. Threaten coverage being dropped without bs stipulations and find excuses to not pay for any claim.

Dealing with the azzholes now. Paid tons of money over time only to be denied on claims now. Then try to exort work on my home or get dropped.

Bunch of lowlifes.
 
Today's EMH Climate Lesson of the Day


Does warming Earth cause more fires or less, all else equal?


There are many pushing the theory that 2F degrees of "warming" (which is fiction) is causing the fires. That is complete BS. Fires are about plant life being too dry, a lack of water.

The media and the Co2 FRAUD support the claim that "warming" is "drying things out." That is COMPLETELY WRONG. A warmer Earth is a wetter Earth.


PROOF - standard XY graph, X axis temperature, Y axis H2O in atmosphere


First point - Earth with a max surface temp of 30F, Y = 0 as all H2O is frozen, and yes massive fires happen at sub zero temps, just ask Chicago

Second point - today, warmer than first point, good amount of H2O in atmosphere

Third point - Jurassic, warmer and WETTER....


The Jurassic period (199.6 million to 145.5 million years ago) was characterized by a warm, wet climate that gave rise to lush vegetation and abundant life.

in other words, as Earth warms, H2O in the atmosphere rises exponentially, which results is more rain, more storms, more clouds, more moisture in the air, all of which REDUCE fires....


Final point - Earth with min surface temp 220F - Y = all H2O since you boiled out the oceans...




A WARMER EARTH is a WETTER EARTH and Jurassic did not have massive fires all the time, NO....


Anyone who claims "warming" is causing fires is 100% WRONG on this issue....
 
Things are changing.

They always have.

We are operating in cycles of construction and growth that are much shorter than climate cycles.

One word: Adapt.

If it's going to be a mess on the coasts for the next 10,000 years, move inland.

Simple.
 
So if my house spontaneously burst into flames because of global warming my homeowner's insurance won't cover it?

Yeah, what's wrong with Dems? Telling the truth and making everyone suffer?

As long as we hold hands, close our eyes, and sing Kumbaya.... things will A-Ok.

So what if there are floods and other disasters? The Feds will provide.

But then their insurance should decrease substantially at least as much as it increased by the gouging after each storm. If not, then that is price gouging and pushback should be to file charges or civil suits, especially those paying excess for years due to risk. They might be due past payments as well since highest risk is removed and no longer calculated yet pocketed over the years without ending up fully backing that risk.
(Did I say that right?)

But yous guys keep on telling us there is no climate change.

I prefer to let things run it's course.

Dems/climate change weenies virtue signaled on CC for so long now the insurers thought "well, if that's what they believe in we'll use it as a excuse to deny coverage or hike rates and get in on the grift".

Sort of like the whole men in women's sports thing, let the virtue-signaling perpetrators of the farce figure it out.

The beauty is the CC weenies will now have to disavow CC to get insurers to cover them.

It's beautiful man!

Wordsmith alert.

Earth climate changes, Co2 has nothing to do with it...

 
Is it such a big deal if 5 insurance companies no longer cover homes in hurricane zones? I say it isn't. Want insurance stay far away from those places or rebuild over and over yourself. Easy.
