This document provides a historical overview of transportation infrastructure and development in New Jersey from the early 1900s through the 2000s. It describes how railroads declined as the primary means of accessing New York City after WWII, leaving only one terminal in NYC and five in NJ by 1950. Major projects by the Port Authority and NJ Transit expanded rail, light rail, and ferry connections between NYC and NJ cities like Newark, Jersey City, and Hoboken. New lines and stations like Secaucus Junction and those serving Newark Airport and the Meadowlands improved regional connectivity.

Final project : Turn Down the Heat: Why a 4°C Warmer World Must be AvoidedRituraj Phukan
I am a Climate Leader and my targets are students and community groups in India, a country already impacted by climate change and extreme weather events. Swollen rivers from accelerated melting of Himalayan glaciers has rendered millions homeless and without subsistence. In the east, influx of climate refugees from neighbouring Bangladesh displaced by rising sea waters, salinization and flooded rivers has caused civil unrest. Precipitation patterns have changed bringing floods and droughts to newer areas and water stress has caused farmer suicides. Yet there is hope that India will take decisive action to utilize the immense potential for renewable energy.
