  1. Climate Change is making weather events more extreme. This will impact the worlds food supply. Floods, droughts, fires, excessive heat, snow storms and low water levels in reservoirs and in ground water storage are becoming more common. We must stop adding more fossil fuels to the climate fire. Stop building and financing more coal fossil fuels power plants. Time to go all in on wind and solar energy, battery storage and electric vehicles. Fossil fuels are a bad investment for people and the planet. The cost of dealing with the impact of climate change will be greater than the cost of reducing the impact.

  2. Climate change and rising sea levels will make properties in coastal areas impossible to insure. Banks will be reluctant to give a mortgage for 15 or 30 years because the property may be under water. Selling properties to average buyers will become impossible in the future as banks and mortgage companies stop making loans for these properties. Florida is a high risk state for insurance and extreme weather like hurricanes. People will have to self insure and take the risk of loss. Condo associations are losing their insurance and if they find a new higher cost policy they will be passing on the higher costs to association members. Flooded cars from Florida hurricanes were filling the salvage lots. Insurance companies will raise rates and pass on the costs and risks to policy holders next year.
