From Risk to Resilience: Wildfires and the Insurance Industry's Climate Reckoning

From Risk to Resilience: Wildfires and the Insurance Industry's Climate Reckoning

In episode 222 of America Adapts, I sit down with Dr. Carolyn Kousky, a leading expert in climate risk and insurance, to explore the transformative potential of 'Insurance for Good.' We discuss how climate change is not only intensifying risks like wildfires in California but also driving radical changes to insurance markets worldwide. Carolyn shares insights on how the industry can respond to these challenges by closing protection gaps, incentivizing resilience, and creating innovative solutions to build more climate-resilient communities. It's a timely and critical conversation at the intersection of insurance, wildfires, and the future of climate adaptation.
