Hi

That is why insurance premiums for property are increasing.

Here in Shrewsbury many cannot get insurance for flooding and others have to pay very high premiums.

More reason to live for today only

Natural disasters MAY by the result of climate change and , then again, maybe NOT.
One thing I do know for certain is that the Earth goes through very, very dramatic changes; none of which have anything to do with mankind.
Some of our readers may know that the Earth, periodically switches magnetic poles. North becomes south, and south becomes north. Also, and this is very important, the Earth has gone through numerous ice ages. 25,000 years ago, much of Europe, Asia and North America was covered in Ice, up to a mile thick. WOW ! Talk about climate change.

Does anyone think this is due to the fact now we know for instance if a flood occurs anywhere in the Word whereas even 50 years ago good chance only the locals would know? Hence more being reported?

True.

You only regret what you don’t do; what you do do becomes memories or bad memories.
