Nuking a hurricane

[kandrathe]

Hi.

I am writing a project about hurricanes, and I need an anwser for this question:

Why does so many people live in the hurricane areas??

I hope that some of you maybe know a website where I can read about this, or can answer it yourself..

I would say arrogance and greed. The arrogance of humans that believe they are indomitable, and lack the humbleness that nature deserves. The greed of developers that build on every inch of land regardless of whether or not it is in a flood plain, a desert, downslope of a volcano, or on shaky soil near a fault line.

There are any number of catastrophes waiting to happen in the US alone due to population growth where populations have no sanity in being.
