North Carolina had a housing crisis before Hurricane Helene; now it's even worse
Hurricanes have gotten larger and wetter because of climate change and inland communities are at greater risk from heavy flooding. That's what Hurricane Helene did to western North Carolina last year.
#ClimateJustice IS #HousingJustice
Over 70,000 families in Western NC lost their homes due to the unprecedented flooding from #HurricaneHelene. Remind your leaders: climate change puts us all at risk, but those with the least lose the most.
We deserve a #JustRecovery.
