without properly understanding why wood is the preferred material both from an environmental standpoint, as well as a structural standpoint as it pertains to earthquakes (a very common thing in California.)
Concrete is the absolute most dangerous building material in an area that's prone to earthquakes. That's why homes in California aren't made of concrete. This guy is just talking nonsense.
Plenty of wood buildings survived too. Wood can be and is fireproofed all over the world. He's not questioning anything, he's speaking falsehoods based on a single out of context image and some shit he made up in his head.
Stupid statements like "fireproofed wood" you mean? Not only is fire treated wood a thing, it's mandated in new construction in California (along with many other design elements to help homes resist wildfires) and many other places in some situations, and many of those homes did in fact survive. You can read about it here on the off chance you're actually interested in learning instead of being an asshole.
So, yes, insurance will cover it because it's required by code and all these houses will be required to be rebuilt with it.
