All insurers need to adopt policies to stop insuring new coal, oil and gas expansion projects, now. This would be a game changer and lead to fossil fuel companies struggling to get new deadly projects started. Without insurance, fossil fuel companies cannot drill and frack new toxic wells, dig new coal mines, or build tar sand pipelines. Insurers have the power to accelerate the phase out of fossil fuels and stop undermining climate change targets.
We are calling on local city and county governments to Insure Our Future by creating policies to select their insurance company based upon criteria that the company is not insuring or investing in fossil fuel companies or projects.
