Study: Climate change is intensifying hurricanes

The trail of destruction left by Hurricane Florence is no alien phenomenon in the U.S. recently but every next assault just gets bigger, more fearsome and more catastrophic. A new study doesn’t shy away from attributing these events and patterns to anthropogenic climate change and specifically global warming.

A group of scientists, who study climate change, hurricanes or both, recently concluded that rising temperatures are making hurricanes wetter and more vigorous and impactful, notes New York Post.

With a new field of attribution studies, scientists have begun to shun the reluctance in relating extreme weather events to human-driven climate change, and there are a lot of factors to back their assertions, reports Chicago Tribune.
