It's been almost 10 years but we're still learning things from Superstorm Sandy.
A new report out Tuesday suggests that what made Sandy super was not simply the confluence of forces of nature, but, significantly our impact on the forces of nature. The report, prepared by researchers from Climate Central based in Princeton, Stevens Institute, and Rutgers University estimates a sea level rise of 4 inches between 1900 and 2012 specifically caused by us.
