Hurricanes and Climate Change

As the earth gets warmer (Global Warming) so do the oceans and seas. Warmer sea surface tempratures cause Hurricanes or Typhoones (depending on which ocean the storm starts in).

Flooding and Climate Change

Climate change can also impact the weather. And an increase or ubrupt raining can cause significant flooding.
