"The insurance crisis spreading across the United States arrived at Richard D. Zimmel’s door last week in the form of a letter.
Mr. Zimmel, who lives in the increasingly fire-prone hills outside Silver City, N.M., had done everything right. He trimmed the trees away from his house, and covered his yard in gravel to stop flames rushing in from the forest near his property. In case that buffer zone failed, he sheathed his house in fire-resistant stucco, and topped it with a noncombustible steel roof."

This has far less to do with climate change and far more to do with mismanagement of state areas. I lived on a property that backed up to state land in the hills around LA. Every year they used to come around and clear large fire lanes and made sure any land owners cleared their land to avoid fires. This stopped completely about 10 years ago. they no longer clear wild brush around housing in populated areas. The funds they used to use for this were diverted off to other programs. Ever since they stopped maintaining public lands to trevent fires it has gotten worse by the year.

As a believer in climate, let me say that this issue is mostly unrelated to climate change. Below are excerpts from an Axios report- By the numbers: About 86% of wildfires in California between 1992 and 2020 were spurred by human activity, burning 63 acres on average, U.S. Forest Service analysis of wildfire data found. Meanwhile, Cal Fire officials say 95% of fires are human-caused currently. Of note: Lightning strikes accounted for the other fires with known causes, mostly in the northeastern and mountainous parts of the state that border Nevada. Lightning strikes were behind California's largest fires, which took place in August 2020, burning more than 2 million acres combined - that's about three-quarters of the size of San Diego County. Details: The top three human activities known to have led to these blazes were from equipment and vehicles, arson and debris burning, the data shows. That includes accidental incidents and neglect, such as leaving a campfire unattended or a malfunctioning catalytic converter spitting a molten substance out of an exhaust pipe.

[@jiggerypokery2962]

The starting of forest fires, but the degree at which the fires are burining due to increased dryness is due to climate change

[@MoreSlater]

@@jiggerypokery2962 I second that.

[@MoreSlater]

true, but as everything get dryer - It burns faster - and wilder! that is an effect of a warmer climate. As well as more rain, in short periods of time that causes floods, larger and more violent than earlier. This is something scientist warned about 50 years ago. So no point in politicize this.. Its a fact

[@dangerousdylan6262]

​@@jiggerypokery2962that is dude to the forests not being frequently cleaned as they should be. Fire is a natural part of the landscape and California stopped doing controlled burns which allows debris to build up which gives more fuel for the fires to burn hotter and longer than they normally would. This is common knowledge.

It's not that climate changes are causing more floods, fires, hurricanes and tornados in those areas. The problem is home building and development has increased in those areas over the years as they have become more densely populated. So, naturally, there is more loss that insurance companies have to deal with in those areas than in decades past. It's really pretty simple math.

[@hermannschaefer4777]

[@junkerzn7312]

1-in-25 is 4% or so. In anycase, its not a disaster... fire risk is just going down the same road that Earthquake risk did decades ago (in California). And similarly for flood insurance in other parts of the country. My guess is that the solution will be similar... the state will offer a fire-only insurance adder or fire-only insurance policy. Then it will be up to mortgage companies and, ultimately, home-owners to decide just how much insurance to have. This will ultimately show up in the price of the home as well, depressing prices for homes, but that sort of rebalancing would likely take a number of years to play out. In short. Not a disaster. These industries adapt to what home buyers can actually afford and despite all the media attention to lack of affordability, the reality is that there is still incredible demand for single-family homes in the U.S.. The real problem is that it is moving up the income scale, which is actually a much larger, broader issue than just insurance.

[@exposingthetruth3821]

@dmi1571 they insured my aunt in California just fine. She just had to have her home inspected so that she didn't have 15 ft of dead underbrush against the side of her house for 1 million acres. If the state isn't going to do any form of forest management, why should they get insured? I live in a forest and have survived a dozen fires in 30 years. It's the same science as it was 100k years ago. The truth is California is a joke, plain and simple... and the only forest management crews they use are the felons they hold in prison work camps, right Kamala??

[@WilliamOpferman]

The major cause of structural loss due to wildfires is that preventative measures are no longer taken and government control and regulations. I remember growing up in the hills of Los Angeles County in the Nineteen seventies. Back then all the communities were protected by the fire departments making wide fire breaks around them and on all the ridges. Often swaths of land a hundred yards wide were made and when fires started the fire fighters would ask for volunteers. I remember me and a bunch of neighborhood kids pulling and dragging fire hoses off the trucks when I was a 13 years old. Some of the kids were as young as 10. The helicopters would come and dip water out of people’s swimming pools and D8 bull dozers plus volunteer dozers would be brought out to fight the fires. And almost no houses were lost . That was back when there was no government required insurance. Insurance is just a legalized form of the old time ganster protection rackets. I was offered a job in the insurance industry and was told that they were going to require insurance for everything by law except for the wealthy who can prove financial responsibility. That’s the loophole that they used to say that they were not forcing their products and services unconstitutionally on everyone. And that the banking industry owns the insurance industry and the economy. That’s why you have to have insurance to drive, get a loan, have a business, have employees etc. and they know that they can always just deny claims because they are protected by the government.
