Foremost Climatologist Dr. Michael Mann responds to Gov. Ron Desantis' comments on hurricanes and global warming
Briefly

Dr. Michael Mann emphasized that climate change is exacerbating hurricane intensity, refuting Gov. DeSantis's claims. He stated, 'The scientific consensus is clear: warmer oceans fuel stronger and more frequent hurricanes, posing significant risks to coastal communities.' This highlights the importance of acknowledging climate change in discussions about natural disasters.
Mann argued that dismissing climate change's impact on hurricanes 'puts communities at risk by fostering a false sense of security.' He explained that as temperatures rise, the potential for more devastating weather events increases, which should be a priority for policymakers.
