Hurricane Katrina.
It was the year 2005 when Hurricane Katrina marked its destruction in United States. The damaged caused by this was beyond repairable, there’s a reason why Katrina is marked as one of the most destructive hurricanes of all times in the history of U.S.
The impact hurricane Katrina had on aquatic ecosystem was terrifying. 150,000 acres of coastal wetlands was damaged. Approximately fifty sea turtles nests were lost. Oil, chemicals, and various other hazardous waste which released in the aquatic ecosystem resulted in the death of aquatic habitats. These are just a few examples of the impact the disastrous Katrina Hurricane had in our ecosystem.
