Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
I just had a read of the article.
It’s unfortunate how often you read about this sort of thing. I get the feeling that as climate change becomes a bigger part of insurance claims (though in this case it wasn’t CC related), we are going to need an ACC-model of national house insurance, otherwise I just don’t see how people will be able to afford the insurance costs needed.
I’d support that. We’re already seeing it happen with flooding earlier in the year. I guess there was coverage through EQC for that stuff, but I’m honestly not sure how that works.
Then with all the wildfires overseas… Almost makes me a little nervous about summer approaching.
Summer has me pretty apprehensive too, and not just for us. If Australia burns long and hard enough it has a big impact on the air quality here and the pretty sunsets just aren’t worth it.
