KNOWING THE IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGES ON HEALTH AND ITS
SIGNIFICANCE FOR INSURANCE INDUSTRY
Climate change has already happened. Further climate changes will be
inevitable for the decades to come, notably due to the fact that gas emissions
have not been curtailed. A large number of researches have easily identified its
consequences on human health, particularly the impact of extreme weather
events. However, general long-term consequences are less predictable.
The society at large meets new challenges in terms of finding possibilities to adjust technical and socio-economic systems to the global climate
changes and to further prevent enhanced anthropogenic greenhouse effect.
Financial sector, particularly insurance industry, are susceptible to the
impacts of global climate change and thus, they need to develop proper legislation in order to adjust.
