<p>Hurricane Harvey has claimed at least 18 lives in Texas so far. Flooding from catastrophic rains has destroyed homes and swept away vehicles. Hospitals have had to be evacuated. Hundreds of thousands of people have lost power.</p>
<p>Yet the storm, which has already dumped record rainfall of more than 50 inches of rain in parts of Texas, still continues to pelt some areas in the Lone Star State. The rainfall is “unprecedented &amp; all impacts are unknown &amp; beyond anything experienced,” the National Weather Service <a href="https://twitter.com/NWS/status/901832717070983169">tweeted</a> on Sunday. Rescue workers are working overtime, wading through waist-deep water to help people trapped by the storm.</p>

<p>Sadly, “it’s not about to get better anytime soon,” says <a href="https://www.mailman.columbia.edu/people/our-faculty/ir2110">Irwin Redlener</a>, director of Columbia’s National Center for Disaster Preparedness.</p>
<p>Hurricane Harvey is predicted to hover over Texas until the middle of the week. After the rains subside, the long, slow process of recovery will begin. Redlener estimates it could take 15 years to heal the wounds Harvey has inflicted.</p>
<p>Tens of thousands of Texans are in need of shelter, and the flooding has caused billions of dollars in damage. Rebuilding homes, infrastructure, and communities will take years, likely made slower by bureaucratic delays and complications, says Redlener. “It will take longer for poor communities, and there will be lots of issues getting kids back to school.”</p>

<p>Harvey’s path of destruction is being compared to Hurricane Katrina’s. In 2005, the category 3 storm flooded New Orleans, killing more than 1,800 people and leaving thousands homeless. Today, 12 years later, Louisiana still hasn’t fully recovered from Katrina’s devastation.</p>
<p>Redlener says that although the federal government’s response has been largely effective, “Our country is not good at recovering. And by the way, very few countries are good at this, but given our resources it’s disconcerting.”</p>

<p>The National Center for Disaster Preparedness, a member of the Earth Institute, will be traveling down to Texas to help assess the needs of children and to see what needs to be put back together.</p>
<p>If you’d like to help victims of Hurricane Harvey, the <i>New York Times</i> <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/28/us/hurricane-harvey-texas.html?mcubz=1&amp;_r=0">suggests donating</a> to these rescue and recovery operations:</p>
<p><em>Donations to the Red Cross for those affected by Harvey can be made online, or text HARVEY to 90999.</em></p>
<p><em>Donations to the Salvation Army can be made online.</em></p>
<p><em>Catholic Charities is accepting donations online, or text CCUSADISASTER to 71777 to donate.</em></p>
<p>NPR has a <a href="http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/08/28/546745827/looking-to-help-those-affected-by-harvey-here-s-a-list">more extensive list of charities</a>.</p>
<p>“A lot of people are going to have a very difficult time,” says Redlener. “Support to recovery efforts critical.”</p>
