As Hurricane Ian spins toward Tampa Bay, the Gulf Coast may serve as a
warning about expansive development in areas at risk for climate-fueled
destruction. POLITICO’s Zack Colman breaks down why Tampa Bay is
uniquely at risk of major destruction from Hurricane Ian and how the
costs of climate disasters are accelerating. Plus, Senator Joe Manchin
pulled his energy permitting legislation from a government spending bill
on Tuesday after it looked like the measure wouldn’t pass.
