Insurance companies are causing the climate crisis by insuring and investing in oil, gas and coal - and then profiting from climate disasters and risk through higher rates and reduced coverage. At this event, join world-renowned climate leader Bill McKibben, Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal and Assemblymember Phara Souffrant Forrest, who are the prime sponsors of proposed New York state legislation taking on this crisis!

We'll also hear from homeowners in SE Queens whose insurance costs are skyrocketing as a result of the climate crisis and insurance company greed, as well as other experts. We'll take questions from the audience as we launch the fight to pass this vital legislation.

There will also be a livestream, but if you want to attend in person, RSVP now because attendance is limited to 50 people - and we expect it to go fast. This is an event where you can only attend if you have RSVPed. Together, let's tackle the rapidly growing insurance crisis from climate risk.
