New York still vulnerable 10 years after Hurricane Sandy, protesters warn

Storm in 2012 had devastating impact on US's biggest city but insufficient government action risks a repeat, demonstrators say

In marking the 10th anniversary of Hurricane Sandy smashing into New York City, campaigners are warning that insufficient action by governments to tackle the climate crisis risks a repeat of such damaging and increasingly fierce storms.

Sandy made landfall with a huge impact on the New Jersey shore on 29 October 2012, before taking an unusual and destructive path into New York causing death, flooding and extended mass power cuts.
