Part 1:
We talk with Lindsay Fenlock, a Senior Researcher at the Center for International Environmental Law (CIEL), based in NM, Geneva, and Washington, D.C.
We discuss the practice of "blue-lining" which prevents people living in poor housing from obtaining homeowners' insurance. For many people, this means that they cannot buy a home, because banks require insurance as a condition for writing a mortgage contract. We discuss how government could help solve this problem.
Part 2:
We talk with Andy Hoffman, Holcim Professor of Sustainable Enterprise at the U of Michigan.
We discuss the insurability crisis. Insurance rates are rising across the US. We have seen the growth in the number of weather events in recent years. They are more frequent, less predictable, and in more locations where damage occurs. What problems need to be solved by homeowners? What can be solved by government agencies? What can/should insurers do? Resilience would require the cooperation of government and the insurance industry.
