Recovering in Sandy’s wake

Friends of the Earth issued a statement following Hurricane Sandy, characterizing the event as a fossil-fueled superstorm exacerbated by climate change. The organization urges the public to donate to recovery efforts and calls on voters to elect leaders committed to clean energy and environmental protections to address the "new normal" of a changed climate.

• Friends of the Earth describes Hurricane Sandy as a "fossil-fueled storm" and a "superstorm" that was made worse by an atmosphere with more moisture and warmer seas.
• Friends of the Earth is calling for voters in the upcoming general election to prioritize candidates based on their records regarding environmental protections, clean energy, and climate change, stating that the climate has changed and requires leaders who can address this "new normal".
• To support recovery from Hurricane Sandy, Friends of the Earth encourages donations to the Mayor’s fund and suggests engaging with Occupy Sandy, which has been managing the distribution of goods and relief centers.
