Description

Many people think of climate change as being a future problem, but that’s not the case. Climate change has become a major part of our economy. In 2020, 4.7 million structures were impacted from an insurance perspective because of climate change. Insurance premiums are increasing, people are losing opportunities to work, and businesses are being disrupted. The federal government is now shouldering a larger burden than the insurance industry and taxpayers are paying the price. But, there is something we can do! Andrew Stevenson, Strategy Manager at Voloridge Investments, shares the relevant data with us and provides important insight into what we can do to lessen the impact on our environment and the burden on us all.

David S. Vogel is a world-renowned data scientist and predictive modeler. He has won the prestigious KDD Cup several times and the Heritage Health Prize in 2013. His wife, Thais Lopez Vogel, an attorney, manages VoLo Foundation. Together, they are raising six kids. David's research led them to become aware of the devastating economic impact of human reliance on uncapped fossil fuels and other greenhouse gases. They knew they had to do something - for their kids and future generations. VoLo Foundation exists to be the bridge between the science community and everyone else. The Foundation's work accelerates change and global impact by supporting science-based climate change solutions, enhancing education, and improving health. The Foundation hosts an annual series of events over the week of Earth Day. It is called Florida Climate Week.
