Heavy rainfall

Global heating is causing fast heavy rainfall all around the world. The most recent instance was in eastern Europe.

The speed of the rainfall tends to cause local mini-disasters by flooding places that had never been flooded before.

*Experts Unsurpassed at Intensity of Extreme Weather But Say Damage Wreaked Shows How Unprepared World Is.*

This flooding is one of several kinds of local disasters that global heating is increasing. Together they imperil the system of home insurance.

The problem shows up in the fact that many people can't get insurance again disasters that destroy They homes, but insurance is not the fundamental cause of this problem. Rather, it is the seam at which the overstuffed bag splits open. If rebuilding our House as fast as they are now being destroyed is unsustainable for society, insurance as such can't alter that. Either we make the rebuilding sustainable for society or we will end up without houses.

In the long term, curbing global heating needs to be part of making rebuilding sustainable in the future.
