Throughout the month of October, members of the Barnegat Bay Book Club will have been reading "Geography of Risk" by Gil Gaul. Join us for our sixth virtual event as we talk with Gil about the risk of living at the Jersey Shore and the storms that slam our shores.
This event will take place in a Zoom meeting on October 29th at 6pm. This event will be recorded and posted to youtube.
"This century has seen the costliest hurricanes in U.S. history--but who bears the brunt of these monster storms?
Consider this: Five of the most expensive hurricanes in history have made landfall since 2005: Katrina ($160 billion), Ike ($40 billion), Sandy ($72 billion), Harvey ($125 billion), and Maria ($90 billion). With more property than ever in harm's way, and the planet and oceans warming dangerously, it won't be long before we see a $250 billion hurricane. Why?"-Goodreads
