Geschreven op 7-10-2017 - Erik van Erne. Geplaatst in Klimaat
Harvey, Irma, Maria and other big storms were intensified by global warming.
The widespread devastation caused by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria is still being assessed, as communities continue to endure health impacts in the wake of these massive storms. But one thing is crystal clear: climate change intensifies hurricanes.
