I'm not an engineer. But I doubt that any structure conforming to any realistic and practical building code won't be severely damaged, if not totally demolished, by 185 mph winds, with 220 mph gusts, and a 23 ft. storm surge.
Higher construction standards isn't totally unreasonable. But it's kinda like dousing your house with a garden hose when there's a raging fire next door. Your first priority should be extinguishing the fire. The fire here is a rise in ocean temperatures. Which results in storms being more intense. We can argue about how much of a role human activity plays in this. But there's no doubt that for the last several decades, average global temperatures have been increasing. If this can be mitigated by reducing CO2 emissions, we should do it.
