    Dear God, not this again! I mean seriously, how do your strategically plan for a theory that one day, 100 years from now the earth might 1-2 degrees warmer. This is just bull$%^& and a waste of policyholders money, resources, etc.

    Wait a minute. Didn’t the journal just post an article on 2/25 that stated coastal growth, not global warming is blamed for rising storm costs?

    I realize these articles cite different sources but really…….

    Just like Linda Buck, a Nobel peace prize winner in 2001 on sense of smell, who cannot recreate her findings according to news last week, we will find Gore the Noble-less, looking for what smells around him over time as well when it comes to climage change.

    Forty years ago we were supposed to worry about the earth cooling. Forty years from now no one will remember the “global warming” hoax. The left will have invented a new scheme to seize power and destroy free markets by then, and the same kinds of shoeple will swallow that myth hook, line and sinker too.

    NEW YORK — Global warming is a natural process, not likely the result of human activities, argued more than 100 internationally prominent environmental scientists in papers presented at the 2008 International Conference on Climate Change, which concluded here today.

    The conference, organized by the Heartland Institute, sought to refute the contention promoted by Al Gore and the U.N. that there is an “established scientific consensus” that human beings are causing the earth to warm catastrophically. The event attracted more than 500 people, including scientists, economists, policy experts and members of the public from around the world…

    Politicians! Yep, the carbon dioxide/hot air producing out-of-touch sleeze balls that supposedly know what’s best for the rest of us. Maybe if we all revolted, rounded them up & put them on an ice floe in the middle of the arctic ocean, they might drown from “warming”.

    It’s the demographic changes in the industry and the loss of institutional knowledge that is one big factor they missed. I place that above about five of these risks anytime.

    Why not make a climate change the biggest issue? Reality is not important, what is important is that what someone says makes them feal good. Also, please ignore reports that this year has been 1 degrees cooler globaly than in the past, facts are hurtful to those who had a lot invested in global warming. Please don’t insult these people, they are smarter than me and you. If their dream cannot be a reaility, why not have them write about it? Why be so evil on taking away this false dream. Lastly, do not dare mention that Hurricane season was non-existant this year. People who speak the truth are evil and hurting political ambitions of others and I kindly as you to stop doing this. Works are most important, do you understand?

    This is impressively terrifying that people who are intelligent enough to be in the insurance industry feel this way.
