Chapters

The discussion delves into the science behind hurricanes and the economic impact of intensifying natural disasters, focusing on the role of warm ocean temperatures and the removal of sulfur dioxide from cargo ships.
  • Warm ocean temperatures drive hurricanes by creating a feedback loop of moist air and evaporation.
  • Removing sulfur dioxide from cargo ships is accelerating ocean warming, leading to more frequent and severe storm events.
  • The economic damage from hurricanes like Milton and Helene could reach billions, affecting insurance markets and real estate values.
