Forbes - Climate Change's $75 Billion Bill
Forbes - Climate Change's $75 Billion Bill
Excerpt:
"Natural disasters wrought by climate change have a staggering price tag, and it's growing.
Total economic losses from natural catastrophes in 2007 rose to $75 billion from $50 billion the year before as extreme weather conditions driven by climate change wreaked havoc across the world, according to Munich Re (other-otc: MURGF - news - people ), the world's second-largest reinsurer on Thursday. The economic losses include those not covered by insurance such as disruption to power supplies or transportation links."
