社評 1228 美國凍死人了




美國凍死人了


美國近代史以來最冷的風雪上週橫掃紐約州北方城鎮已經有二十七人因而凍死 包括科羅拉多州 肯塔基州在內之災情 估計至少有四十九人死亡 消防人員表示 在風雪過後我們會發現多的傷亡


災情最重的水牛城 目前正在清理道路善後 清除路障 預計會發現更多之遇難者 過去週末 因天氣寒冷而取消了二千九百個航班 其中二千五百個是西南航空之航線


根據氣象報告 水牛城曾經有近四十小時在寒冬風暴之侵襲 這是非常罕見之災難 因集雪過深 許多救護車也被困在大雪之中他們反而變成被救之對象


拜登總統已經下令該區是重災區 立即展開聯邦政府給予之協助 並準備了許多速食發放給災民


老實說 地球氣候之變遷和暖化已經給人類帶來了極熱和極冷之氣候 這也是我們面臨之一大挑戰


二〇二二年即將結束 回顧全球艰難困苦之三年加上戰爭及通貨膨脹及新冠疫情之肆虐 我們深深體會到只有團結一致 才能克服困難 否則天災人禍是無法避免的




 




                    People Have Died Because Of The Freezing Winter Storm


A deadly winter storm has bedeviled much of the country. In Buffalo, New York, the hardest hit city is faced with restoring power, checking homes and cars with expectations that more residents will be found dead.


At least 27 people have been found dead as a result of the storm. In New York’s Erie County, Buffalo was buried by up to 43 inches of snow.


When the arctic blast smacked the holiday weekend, nearly 2,700 flights were canceled. Of those, 2,500 are operated by Southwestern Airlines.


Indeed, in Buffalo, blizzard conditions were recorded for 37 straight hours. Even emergency and recovery vehicles were stuck in the snow and rescuers were rescuing the rescuers. Hundreds of vehicles were abandoned in the snow in Buffalo.


According to the records, there were 420 EMS calls that went unanswered and the death toll will be going up.


President Biden has already approved an emergency declaration for New York, freeing up federal resources to assist in the disaster-hit area.


At least 49 storm-related deaths have been recorded across several states including Colorado, Kansas, Ohio and Missouri.


To be honest, the changes caused by the warming of the global climate have brought extremely hot and cold weather to human beings which is now one of the major challenges that we are facing today.


The year of 2022 is coming to an end. Looking back over the last three years, we all have been crippled with Covid-19, the Ukraine war and inflation. We deeply understand that only by being united can we overcome these difficulties. Otherwise, natural and man-made disasters are inevitable.
