“We know we need to cut emissions in half by 2030.”There is considerable unease about the plan in Denver’s oil and gas industry, which employs thousands in the city and has helped keep electrical power cheap by producing a bounty of natural gas for utilities to burn.They argue natural gas is the cleanest-burning fossil fuel and has allowed utilities, like Xcel Energy’s Cherokee power plant north of downtown, to stop burning coal and make major cuts to greenhouse gas emissions.But that shift by utilities isn’t enough to meet the emissions reduction targets climate advocates and a city task force has said is necessary to have Denver help ward off the worst effects of climate change.Denver produces 9 million metric tons of greenhouse gases annually, according to a 2019 climate change task force.

The earth goes through natural heating and cooling cycles every 100 years or so.That said the link you showed, at high emissions, only says an average of 2% of the properties will be under water at high tide in 40 years.

This coverage will offer defense and claims settlement for alleged or actual injury caused by CO2 emissions from a heating or air conditioning source.You can add a "personal umbrella" to cover your personal liability exposures of your home and auto, if your net worth justifies it, but you should keep any income producing assets separate from your personal liabilities.There are very few companies who understand this and do it right but once you get set up right and realize how much easier it is to manage and scale your business up, you'll be glad you did.Ivan
