"Hurricaines vs. Homes" Article
a)This article argues that even though history has proved that hurricaine-prone coastal regions are a bad place to build homes, it seems that we, as a society, have learned few lessons from mother nature. Hurricaines are a major part of the environment in these regions. However, homes are continually being built in these areas and are costing billions of dollars to fix the damage from these hurricaines.
Most Americans are very stubborn and refuse to be victim to these storms. They simply refuse to be shown up. Because of this attitude, these areas contain a substantial amount of the country's investments and population. The authors of this article think that we should consider the reality of the fact that hurricaines will strike in these areas again. What is the use of wasting billions of dollars to fix the damage that will just be blown away with the next hurricaine?
