Ghost Forests are Creeping up East Coast and Changing New Jersey!

When I first read the headline I thought it was something for Halloween!  Nope, it actually has to do with climate change.

 Here are the details:

New Jersey’s Atlantic white cedar forests are turning from green to a pale white, a sign of creeping sea levels and more frequent superstorms.

It’s a term that points to the destruction of the area’s crucial role as a biodome and coastal buffer. These once-thriving forests are a direct result of climate change as the trees are suffocated by saltwater intrusion sparked by sea level rise and an uptick of hurricanes and superstorms.
