FEMA Admin. Criswell: ‘With Climate Change, We Are Seeing an Increase in Severe Weather Events’
‘We are seeing an increase in severe weather events and catastrophic impacts as a result of those events’
EXCERPT:
CRISWELL: “You know, with climate change, we are seeing an increase in severe weather events and catastrophic impacts as a result of those events. And so our programs are going to help jumpstart the recovery, but we're not going to rebuild somebody's home. And so I think what we need to focus on is we're trying to help communities rebuild, helping California rebuild after this, that we do it in a way that's going to make them more resilient, reducing the impact from these events, making it more tenable for the insurance industry to want to cover the risk, right? If we can reduce the potential risk, then maybe they'll stay.”
