Climate's Trojan Horse? Leveraging the Insurance Crisis for Climate Action

​As climate-fueled disasters become more frequent and severe, homeowners, renters, and businesses are seeing insurance premiums soar—or losing coverage altogether. While the insurance industry increasingly blames climate risk, communities are left paying the price, even as the fossil fuel companies driving the crisis continue to profit.

​This panel will bring together advocates, policy experts, and public officials to examine the growing climate insurance crisis through the lens of affordability, accountability, and state leadership. Using emerging state actions—including groundbreaking legal efforts by attorneys general—as a jumping-off point, panelists will explore how policymakers can protect consumers, hold polluters accountable for escalating climate costs, and build a more resilient insurance system.
