Depending on where you live, how has home insurance gone in the last 10 years? Trust the money.
You're right, follow the money. My homeowner's rate doubled this year, but at least my insurance co. didn't pull out of my state. They know we are seeing climate change.
In addition to the money, the military, too. I suppose that the climate conspiracy theorists will just expand the imagined scope of the theory to say that the money people are in on the scam to extract wealth from the rest of us, and that Pentagon is in on it for, I dunno, reasons? (Seems like it already does okay on funding.)
As well as the oil companies themselves, somehow? I'd be interested to hear how they benefit from putting forth climate change lies in their internal memos, just to spend a lot of money suppressing the same information in public.
