Hurricane Sandy Aftermath in New Jersey

Documentation of the flooded streets of Hoboken, New Jersey in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. National Guard troops bring aid to Hoboken, where an estimated 20,000 people remained stranded in their homes and beleaguered officials continued to send out an SOS. Hurricane Sandy is an example of the extreme weather symptomatic of continued climate change, as storms continue to become more frequent and more severe. Storms like Hurricane Sandy will increasingly compromise our safety and economic security if governments don’t address emissions and climate policy.
