...the continuing reliance on data from Munich Re (insurance company) does not solve the basic issue, which is that attribution of the increasing toll of disasters to human-caused climate change remains speculative at best and not supported by science. To the contrary, increasing societal exposure and growing wealth in vulnerable locations are the overwhelming drivers of the increasing losses, a conclusion well supported by many studies...more from Roger Pielke Jnr (Prometheus) here......and note, "Fear is to the insurance industry what oil is to Exxon"...
