"The sea level in the city has already risen by a foot over the last century, a faster increase than the rest of the world, the researchers found."

World to end tomorrow! New yorkers hardest hit!

Luckily most of their buildings are multi-story.
Only the ground floor affected!

How does one become an “expert” at something that’s never happened?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The whole "greenhouse gas" concept was developed because the low-information types can grasp the idea of a greenhouse letting light through the glass and trapping the heat from the light inside.

Problem is, Earth is not surrounded by a glass window.

Gases are not windows.

The "science" of greenhouse gases is a hoax from its very foundation.

Geese, how much money was spent on this dribble? Probably could have simply offered an open bar and Hollywood script writers could have written at least a more entertaining report.

[rktman]

Ummm, localized sea level rise? Huh? They ought to be more worried about a huge sheet of ice once again covering Manhattan. Crank up the SUV’s out there in the Hamptons. You need to keep the warming going. Unless of course someone finds a way to harness that million + degree magma that algore was talking about.

[PROCON]

that could be even more frightening

are expected

it could be

We expect temperatures to increase

Close enough for me...

[baltimorepoet]

If I thought that human-caused global warming was correct, the belief that the progressive, elitist cesspool that is New York City would be underwater would motivate me to buy a Hummer, just so I could do my part.

Maybe the city is sinking rather than the sea rising.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

NYC flooded? And destroyed? So what’s the problem?

[ElkGroveDan]

Just wondering why these “experts” aren’t rushing to buy up real estate on the arctic tundra? Imagine the Booming economy when the Northwest passage opens up and the Canadian Northwest Territories become inhabitable! I bet you could pick up land in those parts for a dollar an acre right now. Come on “scientists” this is your chance to become billionaires because you are so much darn smarter than the rest of us.

“Could”, “may”, “perhaps”.......BS

By mid-century, the city could get five to seven heat waves a year compared to two currently, and the number of days over 90 degrees could double. The mercury is expected to crack 100 three to five days a year, compared to less than once every year.

I can tell that this is going to be a problem. It could cause the massive ice floes in Yonkers and Flatbush to melt completely.

[grobdriver]

report makes doomsday predictions for NYC

Oh stop teasing us.

[Jim Noble]

The sea level in the city has already risen by a foot over the last century

My family settled in Brooklyn between 1848 and 1881, and I have maps from before then.

This claim - that sea levels along the VERY EXTENSIVE shores of NYC have risen A FOOT in the last 100 years is a lie, a naked and obvious lie.

It's interesting, and more than a little disturbing, that the warmers have chosen to make the now obvious lies SO big that people may be overwhelmed by the scale of the fraud.

Water rising around NYC and no where else amazing

[Huskrrrr]

Maybe New York is sinking.

[b4its2late]

Somebody inform the turkeys that write this crap that the sun is headed for its’ less active phase which means we’ll have 13 or more years of winters like this year.....

[qam1]

It is now pretty clearly agreed that the CO2 content [in the atmosphere] will rise 25% by 2000. This could increase the average temperature near the earth’s surface by 7 degrees Fahrenheit. This in turn could raise the level of the sea by 10 feet. Goodbye New York. Goodbye Washington, for that matter.- - Presidential advisor Daniel Moynihan 1969

Move Where (to escape the cold)? The Brutal Buffalo (NY) winter might be common all over the United States. Climate experts believe the next Ice Age is on its way. According to recent evidence, it could come sooner than anyone expected. - In Search of - “The Coming Ice Age” 1978

[In New York City by 2008] The West Side Highway [which runs along the Hudson River] will be under water. And there will be tape across the windows across the street because of high winds. And the same birds won’t be there. The trees in the median strip will change. There will be more police cars. Why? Well, you know what happens to crime when the heat goes up... Under the greenhouse effect, extreme weather increases. Depending on where you are in terms of the hydrological cycle, you get more of whatever you’re prone to get. New York can get droughts, the droughts can get more severe and you’ll have signs in restaurants saying “Water by request only.” - James Hansen Grist Magazine June 1988

‘New York will probably be like Florida 15 years from now,’ - St. Louis Post-Dispatch Sept. 17, 1989

But this time they surely are right!!!!!

[eyeamok]

the jump will be more than 6 feet if climate change goes unchecked.

That settles it, Congress should pass a law immediately Condemning New York City, Get the people out of there now before it is too late. They are for the SAFETY of the American People right?
