<p>With rain expected to continue falling through this Friday, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/aug/28/tropical-storm-harvey-hits-houston-what-we-know-so-far">what we already know</a> about Hurricane Harvey paints a devastating picture.</p>
<p>The equivalent of half of Houston’s annual average rainfall has fallen in the last 48 hours; 80,000 households are without electricity; Houston emergency services have received almost 6,000 urgent appeals for rescues; 54 Texas counties have been declared state disaster areas; thousands of people are displaced or in shelters; five people have died.</p>
<h3><strong>And climate change is making it all worse.</strong></h3>

<p>While we cannot say definitively that climate change caused Hurricane Harvey, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/aug/28/climate-change-hurricane-harvey-more-deadly">science tells us</a> with confidence that it has increased the impact of the flooding and heightened the intensity of the storm.</p>
<p>But this shouldn’t come as a surprise. For many years, scientists have warned that our continued reliance on fossil fuels will lead to <a href="http://www.ucsusa.org/global_warming/science_and_impacts/impacts/extreme-weather-climate-change.html">bigger and more devastating storms</a>.</p>
<p>It’s also abundantly clear that coastal Texas and the wider Gulf region (which has <a href="http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/stories/postcards-climate-change-born-island/">seen this kind of event before</a>), are on the frontlines of sea level rise and extreme weather heightened by climate change. And Houston in particular — with its slate of oil, gas, and chemical refineries owned by companies like Exxon and Shell — faces the additional risk of <a href="https://newrepublic.com/minutes/144487/unbearable-petrochemical-smells-reportedly-drifting-houston">toxic petrochemical chemical spills</a> into nearby communities.</p>

<h3><strong>When disasters like Harvey strike, those standing in the way of climate action must answer to the victims.</strong></h3>
<p>That means we’re looking at you, Greg Abbott. The Texas governor has been on record for years denying the science of climate change, <a href="https://www.americanprogressaction.org/press/release/2015/01/27/105387/release-gov-abbott-joins-republican-governors-denying-climate-change/">stating</a> that scientists disagree (<a href="https://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/">they don’t</a>) and that their findings “need to continue to be investigated” (<a href="https://climate.nasa.gov/evidence/">not really</a>). He also sued the Environmental Protection Agency over the Clean Power Plan, President Obama’s initiative to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from power plants.</p>
<p>There’s also Ted Cruz, the Texas senator so committed to discrediting climate science he once convened a Senate hearing on the issue and filled his panel with ‘scientists’ <a href="http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/watch-industry-funded-climate-denier-goes-off-on-camera-lies-about-fossil-fuel-funding/">paid by the fossil fuel industry</a>.</p>
<p>And we can’t forget Lamar Smith, who represents Texas’s 21st congressional district. As chairman of the House Science Committee, he subpoenaed eight environmental groups — including Greenpeace — for calling on officials to investigate Exxon’s <a href="http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/global-warming/exxon-and-the-oil-industry-knew-about-climate-change/">history of climate denial</a>.</p>

<p>But this goes beyond Texas — we’re also looking at you, Donald Trump. Not only is Trump a <a href="https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/265895292191248385?lang=en">unapologetic climate denier</a> who has spent his time in office dismantling every climate protection activists have won in recent years, he also rolled back an Obama-era rule that required new infrastructure to be <a href="http://www.newsweek.com/trump-signed-away-obamas-flood-risk-rules-weeks-hurricane-harvey-hit-655712">built with climate resiliency in mind</a> (flood protection, specifically).</p>
<h3><strong>How you can support the victims of Hurricane Harvey.</strong></h3>
<p>In the long run, helping those impacted by extreme weather events means holding big polluters — like Exxon — and climate deniers — like Trump, Cruz, Abbot, and Smith — accountable. Only a just transition away from fossil fuels and toward a clean energy economy can soften the impact of the next superstorm to come our way.</p>
<p>But right now, folks on the ground need your immediate support as they deal with power outages, continued flooding, and overcrowded shelters.</p>
