The climate crisis is often touted as an emergency that needs action now to stave off negative impacts in the future. But for one native community in the U.S., the consequences of climate change are already here.
Storm clouds from Tropical Storm Nicholas are seen behind homes of the vanishing Native American community of Isle de Jean Charles, La., which were destroyed by Hurricane Ida, Sept. 14, 2021.
"This is only the beginning," Torbjorn Tornqvist, a professor of geology at Tulane University, told ABC News. "We're going to see many more communities that are going to disappear."The effects of climate change have routinely shut down life on the island for decades, residents told ABC News. Storms would cut off power.
"When you take all those things together, you're looking at very, very high rates of sea level rise relative to the land," Tornqvist said.Chris Brunet, a former resident of Isle de Jean Charles, told ABC News that he left because his "environment was being challenged."
