While climate change has always been a prominent election issue, a series of devastating hurricanes in the southern United States this past month may place it at the forefront of some voters’ minds as they head to the polls this November. Climate action has become especially contentious in the wake of hurricanes Helene and Milton, which battered Florida and other nearby states between late September and early October. The Miller Worley Center for the Environment, Mount Holyoke College’s center for environmental leadership, has urged community members to address climate change by casting a ballot in the Nov. 5 general election.
