Also to make Americans more aware in climate change political issues. Scott Martelle targets Trump’s main administrative climate-change skeptics, Pruitt. Scott Martelle suggests if Pruitt reduces fossil-fuel emissions, it would benefit helping global warming. Which by the help with 350 Madison, could pressure Pruitt to discuss the issue publicly. Other than discussing how to help tame the issue. Scott Martelle reports how global warming is affecting with our current hurricanes. From experts with profound credibility, insists global warming makes storms stronger, quicker and bigger. Also affecting how warm the ocean and atmosphere is. Warmer ocean water supports more powerful hurricanes, while warmer atmospheres, holds more evaporated water, forcing heavier

Greshko explains that this hurricane season has been so active because atmospheric conditions and surface seas temperatures have been warmer than normal. There have been other major hurricanes to make landfall on the continental US over the years but this season has still been unusual with two category 4 storms hitting land in a small space of time. It seems as though the longer it goes, the more severe it gets. Finally, Greshko concludes this article by talking about the cause of this catastrophic hurricane season being climate change. The climate plays a big role in weather and the warmer conditions will make for much worse tropical storms in the Atlantic. In the future individual will drop more precipitation in the future, since warmer air can hold more water vapor. The warmer temperatures are a result of human activity an if the climate continues to warm up then its predicted that storm surges will become much worse.

Harvey made landfall along the coast of Texas. Hurricane Harvey formed quickly. Harvey a category 4 storm with winds around 130 miles per hour. On Thursday, Harvey became a tropical storm. By the following day, Harvey became a category 2 hurricane and strengthened to a category 4 before making landfall in Texas. Harvey feed off the warm waters off the Gulf of Mexico. This provided more fuel to the storm. The storm gained energy and speed as it moved of the gulf warm waters. Hurricane Harvey moved gradually making it worse and giving it additional time to dump devastating amounts of rainfall onto some areas of Texas (Fecht, 2017). According to data provided by Texas State Climatologist John Nielsen-Gammon, Hurricane Harvey produced the largest rainfall of any US hurricane on record. Much of the rain fell in the greater Houston metropolitan area, a low-lying region that has seen rapid growth in recent decades. The result was the largest natural disaster the nation has seen since Hurricane Katrina of 2005, killing at least 70 people, displacing many thousands, and causing damages that are expected to rise above $150 billion (Emanuel,

Hurricanes Harvey and Irma have been some of the few drastic weather cases in America in the year of 2017. Though many agree with this fact, many struggle with the ideas as to why this phenomenon happened and what could have been prevented. Some individuals like Michael E. Mann believe that climate change is the problem; others like Alan Reynolds completely disagree. Michael E. Mann, author of the article "It’s a fact: climate change made Hurricane Harvey more deadly", discusses why Hurricane Harvey was far deadlier due to the human cause of climate change. Alan Reynolds dismisses Mann 's claim in his article "Don 't Blame Hurricane Irma and Harvey on Climate Change" and insists that climate change is not the reason for the high impacts

As We watch Hurricane Harvey and Irma ripping through our nation coastline causing billions of dollars of damages. As college students and Americans, I think it's our civic duty to help one another. A bunch of Illinois college student organization has come to together with ideas to help our fellow Americans that are affected by this natural disaster. We would appreciate if the professor would be involved with our service. So, our goal is to raise $250 by students donating their money and if that goal is meet professors who sign up who will have to get their face thrown by pies. It would greatly appreciate it if you could participate as many students adore and respect

In the science article, “What we can see about the Louisiana flood and climate change” by Chris Mooney, he discusses that Louisiana is always at a risk for floods, but climate change is increasing that risk. In this articles he argues that climate change has already shown increased rainfall in many parts of the world which can be part of the problem of flooding. But he also does argue that climate change had nothing to do with the floodings, although it is an effect climate change may cause. Overall in this article he goes back in forth with facts and statements on how this could’ve or couldn’t have been a climate change cause.

Hurricane Harvey was a very hard and difficult time for a lot of families in Texas. Over a million houses were damaged and about 82 million people died. And 13 million people were affected. Hurricane Harvey was a category 4 hurricane. It would be 180 billion dollar fix to help rebuild the houses that were destroyed. Hurricane harvey landed three separate times in texas, mississippi, and tennessee. Over 203,000 homes were damaged in the hurricane and 12,700 homes were destroyed .Many people and families did not want to leave their homes because they knew they would have nowhere else to go.

Hurricane Harvey is still getting bigger. News people are saying that there is gonna be

When Hurricane Harvey struck in Texas, millions of people lost their homes and over 39 people were killed. In Houston, many churches, temples, and mosques opened their doors wide to let in the many survivors in need of help, providing bedding, food, supplies, clothing, and much more to anyone who came to them. They are also working to rebuild the homes of strangers.

I believe people to be naturally good to others, because there is more kind-hearted people more than cold-hearted people in this world. In this world you will see a handful of people helping and giving to others no matter the situation. The percentage of evil and cruel people is a very low percentage. After everything people all over Texas is coming together, and it shows the good in people that we thought did not have a good heart.

Climate change is also having an effect on the rain, snow, and the hurricanes. The strength of hurricanes are getting more and more powerful each year. According to a study done by, "Signs of Climate Change", in the 1950 hurricanes were between and category 2-3

An article on Newsela, “PRO/CON: Did Hurricane Harvey Show the Reality of Climate Change?,” was just recently written pertaining to the massive Hurricane Harvey that happened only a few weeks ago. Wayne Madsen, the writer of “PRO: Yes, Harvey Shows Climate Change is Real,” argues that Hurricane Harvey proves global warming exists. On the opposition, “CON: No, Hurricanes Have Plagued Texas For a Long Time,” Whitt Flora believes that global warming had no effect on this disastrous hurricane. However, logos from the supporting article reveal that there has been reportedly more severe storms in these past few years: “With drastic climate change, the world is experiencing historic

When I examined the comments left by users, 1 comment is from someone who works for the University, 15 out of 21 comments was from friends and family of students shown in the video, and there was 1 negative reaction to the video. This promotion was aimed towards the community which consist of the cities in the Coastal Bend region and surrounding areas. The main goal of the Islander Impact promotion was to bring more awareness of the long-term benefits of being a student at TAMU-CC.

This event was a major catastrophe mostly due to its destructive economic damage on the Gulf Coast that exceeded even Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The death toll of approximately 82 people attributable to Harvey is a very small portion compared to Katrina’s, but the cost in damages is unrivaled. Current estimates for Harvey are at $180 billion compared to Katrina’s $108 billion (Amadeo, 2017). This makes Harvey the costliest natural event to ever hit the United States and justifies it as more than just a disaster or a hazard.

Natural disasters have costed the government a massive amount in the past years. Hurricanes such as Katrina left people in Florida, Haiti, Louisiana and other parts of the gulf feeling helpless. Katrina ravaged states along the coast of the gulf making it the most expensive damage from a natural disaster, 108 billion dollars. However, in 2017, the disasters required over three hundred and ten billion dollars for repairs (Bowden, 2017). How will this be paid for? Will the government have to cut budgets from other programs? Over five natural disasters have struck the United States and surrounding countries this year. These disasters consisted of hurricanes, mudslides, wildfires, flooding, and earthquakes. Hurricane Harvey hit approximately “number” major cities in
