Tourism is one of the industries most vulnerable to climate variability β and yet one of the least prepared for it.
β±οΈ A week of rain in high season.
π¬οΈ Extreme heat making outdoor activities unsafe.
βοΈ Lack of snow ruining an entire ski season.
πͺοΈ Storm alerts forcing cancellations and refunds.
For tourists, it means disappointment and lost money.
For operators, it means broken margins and escalating risk.
But what if weather disruptions were no longer just bad luck β but a hedgeable, insurable event?
π‘ At Demeter Finance, weβre exploring how blockchain-based climate options could offer a new layer of protection:
β Tourists get reimbursed for unmet expectations (e.g. 5+ rainy days).
β Tour operators can insure against low occupancy during extreme weather.
β Smart contracts ensure transparency and fast payouts.
π°οΈ With verified climate data and DeFi mechanics, weather-based insurance is no longer just for agriculture or big corporations. It can be personalized, affordable, and global.
Tourism doesnβt need to wait for climate stability.
It needs climate resilience β and new tools to build it.
