Was Hurricane Sandy Caused By Climate Change?
In total, the amount of deaths that Hurricane Sandy brought was 38 deaths in New York and 106 in total from all over the states where Hurricane Sandy hit. On Tuesday, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo of New York said, “Anyone who says there is not a dramatic change in weather patterns I think is denying reality.” Senator Charles E. Schumer, Democrat of New York, said Wednesday, “We’re going to pay a price for the change in climate.” And Representative Jerrold Nadler, Democrat of Manhattan, echoed the consensus of local officials on Thursday, saying simply, “There will be a storm of this magnitude again."
