Problem
Businesses face rising insurance premiums and shrinking coverage options due to increasing climate-related risks. Traditional insurance models often invest premiums in industries that exacerbate climate change, further increasing these risks and costs for businesses. This creates a cycle where companies unknowingly contribute to the very risks they seek to protect against.
Solution
Premiums for the Planet offers an insurance brokerage service that helps climate-conscious businesses redirect their insurance spending to support sustainable practices. By aggregating the insurance spending of its members, Premiums for the Planet creates leverage to incentivize insurers to adopt sustainable investments and underwriting practices. The platform provides members with access to vetted brokerage partners who can identify coverage gaps, streamline policies, and potentially lower costs. This approach transforms insurance from a routine expense into a strategic tool for climate action and business resilience.

The primary target audience includes organizations with commercial insurance expenses exceeding $50,000 per year, annual revenues greater than $50 million, or a minimum of 100 employees, as well as portfolio companies or members of partner organizations focused on sustainability.
