CNN: Why was Hurricane Helene so bad? Fossil fuel pollution. – Excerpt: “For decades now, scientists have been warning us that extreme weather events will be exacerbated by this blanket of carbon pollution we’ve been wrapping around our planet,” said Katharine Hayhoe, chief scientist at the Nature Conservancy. “But as a human, it is shocking to see the devastation occurring in front of our eyes, affecting the people and places we know and love.”

CNN: “It’s not rocket science”: Prof. Michael Mann explains why hurricanes are getting stronger –

From CNN’s Elise Hammond

The world is getting hotter and hurricanes are getting stronger, according to climate scientists.

Hurricane Helene hit the Florida as a Category 4 storm on Thursday night, destroying homes, knocking out power and bringing deadly flash flooding.

“It’s not it’s not rocket science, it’s pretty basic physics that tells us that the warmer you make the oceans, the more moisture they evaporate into the atmosphere, the more energy there is to intensify these storms,” Michael Mann, a leading climate scientist at the University of Pennsylvania, told CNN on Friday.

Stronger storms means stronger winds, which leads to more life-threatening storm surge and catastrophic flooding. After it makes landfall, the storm is still dangerous, thanks to that increased amount of moisture that allows it to continue to dump rain, Mann said.

…

But, Mann said there are things we can do to prevent it from getting worse, including stopping carbon emissions from burning fossil fuels and transition to renewable energy “as rapidly as possible.”
