Who’s guilty in the case of Cat. 5 Milton? It’s Us for Fueling climate change

Hurricane Milton, a Category 5 storm that barreled into Florida at a still-strong Category 3, is likely to have caused $175 billion in damage along the state’s west coast. The rapid intensification of storms like Milton, fueled by increasingly warm Gulf waters — which have reached 90 degrees — highlights the growing threat of these superstorms, which are are becoming more frequent and destructive due to climate change.
