Pardon me

They should look to Denmark for sea gates to push back the seas.

So which is it?
Seas rising or island sinking?

So are apologies owed to Rep. Hank Johnson?

So mass settling is outpacing the rising seas from climate change? Maybe NYC should relocate to Boise, Idaho. Take Washington DC with them. Let the FBI sink out in the swamps around Quantico, in their new Stasi-quarters.

Pretty soon this is all that will remain...

Hopefully Kevin Costner will figure some way out...

I saw this clown interviewed by Lee Goldberg who is a meteorologist here in NY. The engineer completely made a WAG on this. He basically claims he figured out the weight of over 1M buildings, came up with a load and weight number and determined it’s sinking 1mm a year. Total and absolutely useless exercise. But I’m sure he got a government grant to do this.

I just left Manhattan. Seemed the same. Smelled like weed.

Hundreds of thousands of tons of buildings on a small island and anyone is surprised it would start sinking? Wow - I’m speechless.

Now imagine how far down glaciers and ice sheets would push down on the ground. I don’t know the exact amounts.
But my guess id that “sea level” today is many feet higher than it was in prior periods.
An interesting topic to explore IMO.

So really the sea levels haven’t really been rising, moreso massively developed costal cities are sinking under their own weight.

The descent makes the metropolis more vulnerable to rising sea levels and coastal flooding caused by climate change

Sure - if climate change was real.

For the climate cultist, sinking island means sea level rise.

Could happen to a better place.

Well, really, I can think of others, but NYC works for me to start.

Every time I read as story like this, I always visualize Gilligan moving the lobster trap into deeper water.
