Nevada’s brewing insurance crisis: a moral issue of housing and climate justice
As insurers withdraw from high wildfire-risk areas, hundreds of Nevada homeowners are losing coverage, and, in some cases, the stability of their homes. This growing insurance crisis exposes how climate change deepens housing insecurity, especially for rural and working families.
For people of faith, this is not just about economics, it is about protecting our neighbors and ensuring every Nevadan can live with dignity and safety.
LEAN continues to advocate for fair housing policies, consumer protections, and climate action rooted in justice and compassion.
Environmental Racism is Real in Nevada.
On this Earth Day, we recognize that the climate crisis does not affect all communities equally, and that climate justice must be intersectional to be truly just. LEAN is committed to addressing the climate crisis while confronting the inequities that impact communities across Nevada.
Today is Earth Day
Nevada is the driest state in the United States, with constant drought and uneven water access, especially in rural areas. At the same time, Reno ranks #1 and Las Vegas #2 for fastest-rising temperatures, making extreme heat a growing threat.
Clean energy like Hoover Dam helps power millions with renewable, low-cost energy, but more action is needed.
Nevada is on the frontlines of climate change, and we can lead the way.
- Smarter water solutions
- More shade, cooler communities
- Stronger clean energy
Let’s build a future that works for people and the planet.
