Little Falls NJ, More than a week after the tragic death of Debrina Kawam, new details about her life have come to light. The 57-year-old woman, who perished in a horrific incident on a New York City subway, was a New Jersey native with deep ties to her community.
New Jersey is facing a range of troubles, from surging food prices to infrastructure decline. When it comes to climate change, Montclair State University highlights a range of problems, too, from the buildup of cyanobacteria in New Jersey waters, increasingly hot summers, and increased numbers of floods. What control the state and government have over this is debatable but, as always, individual citizens can do a lot to get involved and improve the natural environment in New Jersey, and, in the process, quality of life.

The jellyfish with a dangerous sting that caused a scare on the Jersey Shore last summer, prompting the cancellation of several events, have reappeared in a Monmouth County river, researchers say.
Clinging jellyfish – whose sting can cause “excruciating pain”, muscle weakness and serious medical problems, including kidney failure – were observed and recorded in New Jersey for the first time last June, specifically in the Manasquan and Shrewsbury rivers, according to the state Department of Environmental Protection.
As a result, the DEP and Montclair State University initiated a sampling plan to assess the abundance of jellyfish in New Jersey waters.
