Houston is a city that, like New Orleans, is largely below sea level. Thus, Katrina and Harvey destruction is a man-made disaster. We can build dams and reservoirs that will provide some level of protection, but the law of gravity can’t be broken, get a big storm and water will eventually find it’s way into a hole.

Most hurricanes that affected the U.S. by decade:

(per Wikipedia): #1-1880s, #2 - 1940s, #3,#4 - 1950s and 1890s (tie) #5,#6 - 1870s and the 2000s (tie) The 2010s thus far have had the least hurricanes per year than any other decade recorded.

If CO2 concentrations are causing hurricanes, we should see CO2 spikes as a leading indicator of the most prolific hurricane occurrence. Yet the data tell us that the 1800s were every bit as hurricane prone as the 1900s and 2000s, even though CO2 levels were quite different.

If someone can provide me data to show a correlation between leading CO2 levels and hurricane activity, I might consider believing the climate change narrative.

Sorry, facts are a stubborn thing....
