CONTENTS
Wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that spreads across vegetation and landscapes, intensifying with hotter, drier conditions and threatening physical assets and the operations around them.
Example in context
You're an insurer reviewing a book of wineries and resorts. Rising wildfire risk drives not just fire damage but business interruption and the prospect of cover becoming unaffordable — or unavailable — which reshapes how you price the whole region.
Why it matters
Wildfire is one of the fastest-growing causes of property loss and insurance retreat, so it bears directly on asset value and operating continuity. EarthScan quantifies wildfire exposure at the asset level across forward-looking scenarios.
