Greenpeace shared a platform with the world insurance industry at last year’s
Berlin Climate Summit, where actuaries complained that droughts, storms and
floods caused by global warming were wrecking their risk assessments. The
meeting is now on paper in Climate Change and the Financial Sector (Gerling
Akademie Verlag, Munich, £15.95/$26, ISBN 3 9803352 2 4) edited by
Jeremy Leggett, one of the Greenpeace climatologists who brought the
environmentalists and insurers together.
