Over a Million NY Tri-State Homes Face Future Flood Risk with No Clear Plan

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports on a new Regional Plan Association study revealing that over 1.2 million homes in the New York tri-state area will be at serious flood risk by 2040. The study also warns of a 90,000-home shortfall, as construction lags far behind climate threats. McIntyre emphasizes that there’s no plan to build replacement housing or improve infrastructure to mitigate damage—posing a serious regional crisis in the making.
