Don’t believe in climate change? Your insurer does | Richard Denniss on The Project
The Australia Institute 
“It doesn’t matter whether people believe in #climatechange or not.
What matters is insurance companies know that their payouts have gone through the roof & the insurance companies are going to increase people’s premiums.
That’s just the way it works.”
– Richard Denniss, Executive Director #auspol

Gas is transition fuel to being broke
We're stuffed.
Hahahahaha what the hell is this guy talking about. Gavin Neeson caused this. And the people whose houses burned down voted him in again and again.
As well as the need for hundreds to thousands of replacement homes needed, every time there’s a fire, flood or monster storm…. putting exponential demand on housing in an already astronomical market.
Lol @ "extreme insurance stress". I'm 45, never paid a cent of insurance for anything. Do they know it's actually optional whether you give take the insurance gamble?
Of course, I live a modest life, I rent and my car was free with some repairs I did myself, so it owes me nothing, the public health system is good and I keep myself healthy. One of the gotchas of diving into a material competition with everyone else is that now you are afraid of losing what you spent all that money (and ultimately all that precious time) on. If I scratch my car it's annoying, but nothing like the emotional catastrophe marring the gleaming paintwork on a new 50k wank box without that bloody insurance. I may not like renting, but my landlord can deal with insurance for his investment. People need more balls to vote with their wallets and tell the insurance companies to screw off until they lower prices, just have an emergency account instead.
The insurance companies and military know what’s happening in the world.
Follow them and you’ll be close to the make most of the time.
