Question

How can our impact on the environment, (using a lot of water/drying up rivers, greenhouse gases) make catastrophic events like hurricanes, and storms, and tsunamis happen? Please explain.

Answer 1

Gustav is a great example. When it left Cuba it picked up speed and energy in the Gulf of Mexico. Why? There&#039;s a warm current in the south end of the gulf. The increased water temperature actually feeds the power of the hurricane.

Global warming will increase ocean temperatures. This means the conditions hurricanes form in will last longer. That they will spawn more and larger hurricanes
