Hurricane politics on display with Harvey, like fractivism, simply ignores the evidence and pushes reason and science to the side to exacerbate the problem.

A hurricane hit the Texas coast in 1900 and became the deadliest natural disaster in US history with a death toll range from 6,000 to 12,000. Granted, hurricane science was not well developed, nor was there proper communication channels available to give much of an advanced warning about a possible storm, but deadly storms such as this Category 4 storm have been around since the dawn of time. Hurricane politics, like fractivism, hasn’t been around quite that long, but its practitioners seem determined to dispense with all reason and science in pursuit of their campaigns.

Texas is no stranger to big storms and the massive rainfalls that accompany them. In 1979, Tropical Storm Claudette dropped 42 inches of rain in 24 hours following Amelia in 1978, which produced a total of 48 inches. These records were broken by Hurricane Harvey which has topped 51 inches thus far. However, what we are seeing more and more of is the claim that only man-made climate change is responsible for these storms and that they will continue to get worse.
