The insurance companies are not science challenged

I heard a story on NPR's Marketplace last night about how the insurance companies are true believers in global warming. It is now a central part of insurance company coverage and underwriting decisions. They see the effects of global warming in their bottom line. Accordingly, they hire the scientists to study the risks, and they have determined that the risk is real. It appears that industries will only turn a blind eye to science if the scientific conclusions hurt their bottom line - isn't that right Big Oil?

Just do a Google search for "Insurance and global warming" and you will find dozens of stories.

Regards,

D-Ray
