Emeritus Prof Christopher May on Nostr: One mechanism for forcing the world to deal with the projected impact(s) of ...
One mechanism for forcing the world to deal with the projected impact(s) of #climatechange may be the increasing cost of insurance for those areas most likely to be at the forefront of #environmental effects (damage).
As the costs of future climate-caused effects are no longer able to be treated as uncosted future externalities, we may see a stronger 'business case' for addressing the #climatecrisis.
As so often, its only when a clear cost is allocated that some people finally will wake up!
