BBC’s Trevelyan: Climate Change Creates Moisture, Which Created Hurricane Harvey
‘What hurricanes absolutely love is moisture’
RUSH EXCERPT:
TREVELYAN: "Well no one here likes to think that that could be the case but of course we do have a changing climate we do have warming waters. With more warming waters, you get more moisture coming into the atmosphere and what hurricanes absolutely love is moisture because that gives them rainfall. And that's what's happened in this situation with Hurricane Harvey that then became the tropical storm. It's because that was all this moisture in the air -- because that's been so much moisture rising from the water because it's been a very warm winter in the Gulf of Mexico."
