Geee Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Washington Examiner: The Obama administration believes climate change will make hurricane season worse for people in some areas of the country, such as those living in South Florida. "There was certainly a discussion about how the very early effects of climate change are putting some communities across the country at even greater risk from a hurricane," White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters Tuesday during his daily briefing. "There are some communities in South Florida where we have seen sea levels rise and begin to encroach on populated land," he said. "That makes the potential impact of storm surge associated with a significant hurricane even more dangerous." "The president is certainly mindful of that risk here at the beginning of hurricane season," he said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
