I mean, this has nothing to do with climate change and more to do with insurance companies raping every dollar they can out of people's wallets. They would have been doing this anyhow. These areas were already getting hit annually with hurricanes, tornadoes, etc.
Insurance companies are pulling out of home insurance markets in certain states because climate change has made them uninsurable. Many places are facing things they rarely if ever witnessed eg I have seen more tornados in NJ, which most years sees zero tornados, from 2014-now than from 1974-2013.
Climate change is real.
All policies have nothing to do with climate change more to do with companies raping every dollar they can out of people's wallets. That includes the C02 tax scam.
