Cover Story - Climate change: Time for action
Source: Asia Insurance Review | Feb 2009
For the insurance industry, climate change has never been just a fad. It affects the bottom line in a big way, and so it is no surprise that the industry around the world is at the forefront of initiatives and solutions for this threat to our planet. It is also heartening to know that governments, insurance players and other private companies are now co-operating and co-ordinating their actions to tackle this peril. Asia Insurance Review finds out what some of these insurance companies are doing and also presents in-depth discussions from three companies which talk about renewable energy, an Arctic Circle expedition and why a climate agreement is urgently needed. There is also a spotlight on last year’s 15th Indonesian Rendezvous which had focused on climate change and what is needed for Indonesia to curb its flood problems.
