Argumentative Essay: Why Sandy Is Better Than Katrina
I believe Sandy was worse than Katrina. Because it had a greater impact on humans by destroying the building and killing more people. The people in the disaster that were affected by Sandy were by millions and Katrina as well. But not as much as sandy. It states, population affected by Sandy was 17,676,119 in artifact 4 and the population for Katrina was 15,000,000. So sandy is worse than Katrina even in kinetic energy and landfall. It says in artifact 3 sandy was 150 mph intensity and for Katrina was 120 mph. So which is still worse than Katrina. Also, many people will agree with me like the mayor of new york. It states, “The mayor of new york states that “Hurricane Katrina, in many ways, was not as impactful as hurricane sandy, believe it
or not”. So you see why I think Sandy was worse than Katrina. Tho many people may think differently because of their loss and feel I respect everybody's opinion.
