No, hurricanes even happened during the ice age, although the were less common and not as severe. The warming of the globe could make hurricanes more common and more severe, on average. Warmer ocean waters would add more energy to ocean storms. Global warming is a myth.

No, hurricanes aren't started by global warming. But research has shown that global warming affects the strength and frequency of hurricanes.

Heat is a prime factor in the formation of hurricanes. Global warming, as it has come to be known, contributes to the heating of the ocean's waters. This has been shown to increase the intensity of phenomena such as hurricanes.
In short, global warming doesn't start hurricanes, it does contribute to the severity of them.

Hurricanes are fueled by warm ocean waters. To the extent that global warming heats the ocean then it makes them stronger.
There are no experts that claim that global warming causes hurricanes.
The way they start to form is well explained in the link below.

As the temperature of the ocean rises, it increases the strength and severity of hurricanes. Scientists have noted that the destructive potential of hurricanes has greatly increased along with ocean temperature over the past 35 years.

No, they get started by what started global warming: increased electric activity in space and around the Sun.

No absolutly not. Hurricanes are caused by a low and high presure streams interacting with each other at great velocities very natural and historicly speaking we have never seen a masive hurricane like more primitive creatures were forced to endure.

No, but global warming does increase their intensity and frequency

No, they get started by clashes of different fronts and are fueled by warm ocean waters.
