Every year at this time, when hurricane season rolls around, corporate media start pumping out headlines linking the severity of hurricanes to climate change. But is there causation or correlation? And if changes in the climate do affect hurricanes, is it in the way climate activists claim?\nClimatologist David Legates says, "[If] we have colder periods, we will get more hurricane activity. If we have warmer periods, the hurricane activity tends to drop off.\u201d\nLegates serves as a visiting fellow for the Science Advisory Committee in the Center for Energy, Climate, and Environment at The Heritage Foundation, and is a professor emeritus at the University of Delaware. He is also the co-author of the book \u201cClimate and Energy: The Case for Realism.\u201d\nLegates joins \u201cThe Daily Signal Podcast\u201d to discuss what connection does exist between hurricanes and a changing climate.\xa0\nEnjoy the show!\n Hosted on Acast.
