A World In Pictures- Alex Cooper

            This picture is the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. This heart-wrenching photo is of a little boy probably sitting on what remains of his house, his life. Just because he is young does not mean that he does not understand the absolute devastation that this storm caused. He probably managed to find his bear hoping it would provide him with some kind of comfort and yet it is laying unused, not even the bear can take his mind of the horrible loss. Hurricane Katrina took at least 1833 lives and cause about 108 billion dollars’ worth of property damage. This storm caused a great many pain and suffering and one can probably never truly no how much unless they were directly affected by it. These people were going about their daily lives thinking the storm would never reach them when they were told to evacuate, but it was too late. The floodwater came and lingered for weeks, making rescues extremely difficult and destroying lives as it came and went.
