Event Info: 

  As climate disasters intensify, insurers are raising premiums, reducing coverage, and pulling out of high-risk areas, leaving homeowners and communities financially vulnerable. How can officials protect the public and make those responsible bear the risk and rising costs? California is the epicenter of a growing debate about whether and how officials can hold the major oil and gas companies that are fueling the crisis accountable. Attendees will gain insight into emerging ways to confront this growing crisis and make polluters pay.

The Center for Climate Integrity is a nonprofit organization that supports communities in efforts to hold oil and gas corporations accountable for deceiving the public about their harmful products.
