'Global Warming is Real'

摘要

On 29 October 2012, with winds of over 120 kilometres (80 miles) per hour and hurricane-force destruction, Superstorm Sandy shifted west and made landfall in the New Jersey shore town of Brigantine, just northeast of Atlantic City, after wreaking havoc days earlier in the Caribbean communities of Bermuda, Greater Antilles, Jamaica, Haiti, the Dominican Republic and the Bahamas, causing over 230 deaths and over $75 billion in damages. In the US alone, Sandy's impact was felt by 24 states from Florida to Maine, and westward to Michigan and Wisconsin.
