"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?

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.

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.

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.
To: lowbridge
Maybe the city is sinking rather than the sea rising.

I think its pretty easy as long as the expert crafts predictions in line w/ the liberal narrative. :)

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.

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.

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

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.....
