Forest Fire Risk Prevention Derivatives in Northern California
Bobby Fishkin, lead author

In 2018, Sacramento was named the ""the Most Polluted City on Earth"" due to ""smoke from Camp Fire,"" This proposal aims to prevent that from happening again through adopting a systemic approach and collaborating with stakeholders to actively prevent future such events. The insurance industry, along with institutional chief risk officers, have begun to recognize the importance of moving from ""loss compensation to loss prevention.""

CrowdDoing and Project Heather propose launching a prevention derivative with two new stakeholders: (a) contingent payers who pay in proportion to the reduction in risk, and (b) impact investors who finance social innovations in which their return is similarly proportional to the reduction in risk. It will build on existing precedents for contingent contracts involving social- innovation-based risk prevention.

Forest Fire Prevention Derivatives, CrowdDoing, Volunteer Insurance Underwriter
A spectrum of forest fire risk prevention approaches are available: from creative new social innovations to well-established interventions.The forest fire risk prevention derivative would first survey existing forest fire prevention interventions in Greater Sacramento with an eye towards which ones might be suitable to support and expand. It would then review global social innovations that might be relevant to Northern California to determine which to replicate. Entities involved in risk management and risk securitisation, from insurers to reinsurers to retrocessionaires, ought to welcome the chance to share liability proportionally through a commons of prevention innovations. The prevention derivative can expand as more institutions and individuals join as contingent payers and impact investors in order prevent a larger portion of collective risk. Payments by private and public institutions to support prevention derivatives can be in-kind, through services, and/or financial.

The Great Milwaukee Victory Garden BLITZ is the nation's largest garden-building event, building over 500 raised garden beds, engaging over 350 volunteers, and empowering communities to grow their own food every spring!

Victory Gardening grew out of WWII and was a way to support the war effort. People throughout the United States grew their own produce in yards, parks and all available community spaces to allow more resources to go towards the war.

Today, we are fighting a different kind of war - against health-related diseases and for resilient and healthy communities that support one another. So how does one become a Victory Gardener of today, you ask? We become vegetable gardeners! We find creative ways to grow food right where we are, in our yards, on our rooftops, in our schools - no piece of earth should be overlooked.

Groups of volunteers from businesses, nonprofits, social organizations, schools, and government offices make up the bulk of our BLITZ volunteers. We couldn't put in 500 gardens across Milwaukee without you! Thank you for your efforts to make this world a healthier, more productive place!

Teams of ~5 will complete a variety of activities during their shift including building garden beds, transporting the materials and beds themselves, and coordinating with the recipient of the garden bed.

Please feel free to sign up for as many days or shifts as possible. We generally need more help during the weekdays, but any day that your team can come help out will be greatly appreciated! Shifts below are full day shifts, however if you can only volunteer for a half day shift, message us directly at lexie@victorygardeninitiative.org

We do have a maximum number of volunteers we can accommodate comfortably, so once that limit is reached, the sign-up for some volunteer shifts may close.
