New York-area Airports Face Sea-rise Risk
A report by the Regional Plan Association casts a spotlight on the perils the metro-N.Y. airports could face from climate change.
Hurricane Sandy in 2012 brought a storm surge that flooded Teterboro Airport, but a new report from the Regional Plan Association contends that the airport will face more permanent flooding due to rising sea levels. Thus, the group is calling for Teterboro to be phased out.
