As the News Corp Australia 2024 National Bush Summit kicks off in #Townsville, Suncorp CEO Steve Johnston highlights the ongoing conversation about the impact of more frequent extreme weather in our idyllic regional communities. Mr Johnston penned an opinion piece, published across News Corp's mastheads, which discusses the critical need for greater investment in resilience measures to protect homes and businesses in our regions. “The future of our regions depends on our ability to mitigate the impacts of extreme weather, and for this we need to see greater investment in strengthening resilience measures across communities,” he says. “The bush will always be defined by the weather, but we know what we can do to protect homes and businesses, and ultimately help people to stay living in the regions.” Read the full story: https://bit.ly/3WVPOuP #Resilience #BushSummit24 #RegionalAustralia #ExtremeWeather
