Ummm ... been paying much attention to the news lately? Entire
countries sinking beneath the waves, that kind of thing?
You watch the news? That explains a lot.
Insurance companies are not atmospheric physicists or anything of
the sort.
Not that you seem to be paying much attention to the atmospheric
physicists anyway, but ...
Insurance companies have mathematically-skilled people called
oactuarieso, who have to work out the odds of having to pay out on a
policy, which is the basis on which they set their policy terms and
premiums. Set payments too high, or provide inadequate cover, and
customers will go to competitors; set them too low, or accept too many
risky things, and the company loses money.
So, because the insurance companies are singing from the same hymn
book as the climate hustlers, the climate must be changing for the
worse, and human activity is the main cause.
That's your argument?
In any computational algorithm garbage in = garbage out. If the
information fed to the insurance underwriters is wrong, the
calculations will be wrong.
The insurance companies don't know how the weather will behave years
into the future, AND NEITHER DOES ANYBODY ELSE!!
So this is no idle guessing or ogiving in to fake narrativeso
How do you know that? What does it matter to the insurance companies
whether the threat is real or perceived? If it's real, their arses are
covered. If it turns out to be false, then that's a bonus for them.
The man made climate narrative is fake. There is no evidence for it
whatsoever. It's all hearsay, speculation and fraud. It is impossible
to measure, and no proof has ever been forthcoming.
or
anything ideologically wishy-washy like that: real money is involved,
and the life or death of the business depends on getting it right.
The climate is unpredictable despite what all the carbon hustlers
would have you believe. You believe all the nonsense because it is
what you have heard on the news. You have just admitted as much.
Bill.
