"2012 CLIMATE CHANGE: A NEW NORMAL IN AMERICA?"
BRAITHWAITE, LA - SEPTEMBER 03: Melanie Martinez pauses while salvaging items in her flooded home in Plaquemines Parish on September 3, 2012 in Braithwaite, Louisiana. Martinez, along with her husband and mother, was forced to ride out the storm in the home when their car broke down. The house quickly flooded and they were rescued by a neighbor who was able to break into their attic to save them. This is the fifth home Martinez has had destroyed due to hurricanes in Louisiana. Damage totals from the hurricane could top $2 billion and more than 125,000 customers are still without power six days after the storm made landfall.
