Houston, My birthplace and the fourth most populous city in the country, is in peril according to experts.
Heat, hurricanes and other natural disasters continue to pose challenges to the city's residents. Last year, Houston's city center shut down for nearly a week after Hurricane Ike battered the city causing $10 billion in damage.
Residents struggle with the heat and humidity as well. Temperatures soar into the 90s on nearly 100 days each year. With so many residents running their air conditioners so often, Houston uses more electricity than Los Angeles.
Some scientists think the only way to save Houston is to move it indoors, constructing a giant dome over the entire city.
