Forest Fire Prevention Derivatives, CrowdDoing, Volunteer Project Manager
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.

Actuary Volunteer, Forest Fire Prevention Derivatives, CrowdDoing
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

Our 501c3 non-profit organization has been featured in over 300 media outlets nationally over the last year.

Just looking to explore the idea and if it's worth the effort. Weigh pros and cons, Steps required, etc.

Aguilas del Desierto is a humanitarian non-profit organization dedicated to saving lives along the US-Mexico border and recovering the remains of those who have tragically perished. Aguilas does not aid in illegal crossings and is committed solely to preserving life and dignity.

In an effort to prevent needless loss of life, Aguilas conducts semi-annual Public Awareness Campaign, visiting shelters in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras to educate migrants about the dangers of crossing and how to call for emergency help. Since its founding in 2012, Aguilas has rescued over 1000 people alive and recovered the remains of over 150 people. We can not count how many lives were saved through education.

With a social media following of over 350,000, Aguilas has built a trusted network spanning from remote villages to consulates, providing a safe channel for migrants and their families to seek help. Receiving nearly 2,000 calls annually, Aguilas coordinates with international, federal, state, and tribal agencies to respond swiftly to emergencies and save lives. Each search costs at least $3000 USD for equipment, food, gasoline and insurance. Each year, our highest expense is gasoline at over $30,000 for the year.

Aguilas accomplishes these efforts, and all its supporting functions, through the selfless and dedicated efforts of volunteers.

Would you consider helping save lives at the border through? The work of Aguilas is totally dependent upon public support. We have recently begun efforts to seek and pursue grant funding. We can use the help of grant writers and those who would like to work on a team.

We could also use the help of those who have experience with marketing and social media. With over 350,000 followers on Facebook, reaching out is important, but consistency even more so. Please consider volunteering your time to help raise funds, disseminate public information, and developing our online community.
