With nearly 30 years in the insurance industry, Charlie Langdale has seen its transformative power to unlock finance and support communities facing the devastating impacts of climate change. Inspired by Mia Mottley’s call to action at COP26, Langdale now leads Humanity Insured, backed by the insurance industry, to help pay for rapid, reliable insurance protection for those on the climate frontline. Its mission is to stop disasters from driving poverty among the 3.6 billion most climate-vulnerable people. Insurance isn’t just about protection—it empowers people to adapt to challenges, move beyond daily survival, and envision a future full of possibilities.
