Hi! Today, we’re launching the Insurance Fairness Project, a new effort to explore solutions for America’s ongoing home insurance crisis. Insurers and politicians are leaving homeowners in the lurch, even as climate disasters hit harder and more frequently than ever.
Ceres recently released its 2026 Progress Report on climate risk reporting in the insurance sector, finding that while most U.S. insurers now acknowledge climate-related financial risk, the industry is still failing to fully measure and disclose the scale of the danger.
The increasingly destructive hail events are contributing to higher repair costs, more insurance claims, and mounting pressure on homeowners already struggling with rising premiums.
This week Unlocking America’s Future (UAF) released a new report exposing how North Carolina’s Republican members of Congress have failed to take action on the climate-driven home insurance crisis.
In response to pressures like these, California insurance commissioner candidates have proposed expanding the state’s role in protecting homeowners from insurance market pressures.

These developments highlight growing fears that California homeowners are being left financially and physically vulnerable in the aftermath of extreme climate disasters.
