New York Prepares for Up to 6 Feet of Sea Level Rise (Gorebal Warming Barf!)

LaGuardia Airport is about to be rebuilt in New York City, but by the end of the century, fish could be swimming where airplanes once parked at the terminal. That’s because sea levels in the area could rise by as much as 6 feet over the next 75 years, according to new predictions released by the state of New York.

New York State environment officials announced Friday that they’re creating new sea level rise regulations that will help coastal communities build more resilient homes and other buildings that will be better able to withstand storm surges and other flooding made worse by rising seas driven by climate change.

The new regulations will require developers in New York City, along Long Island and on the shores of the Hudson River to prepare for sea levels that could rise between 15 and 75 inches by 2100. At the far end of that scale, many of the areas hit hard by Hurricane Sandy — the Rockaway Peninsula and the shores of Staten Island, for example — could be underwater

Entering quotes and apostrophes directly isn’t the problem. The issue appears when doing a copy-and-paste of them.

“Gorebal Warming” is good ... how ‘bout “Gore-Bull Warming”?

Why was “al baby” suspended - his comment seemed to be OK?

I don’t know exactly why I did it but I clicked on his handle, his info popped up along with that suspension comment.

If we post the body of our articles in the ‘comments’ section it doesn’t happen.

I would surmise they might be more inclined to have 6 feet of snow this winter.

If Gore is so concerned about the seal levels rising, why did he purchase a multimillion dollar ocean front home in California?

creating new sea level rise regulations

There is no problem which a few new regulations cannot solve.

LOL! Nice. Me likey.

I think a cabinet level agency (ATTN: Barack Hussein Obama, aka Berry Bathhouse Soetoro, Mau Mau Oathgiver #1) will be established to fight this incredible danger.

Uh, I’m still tryin’ to see the downside. Maybe it’s that the obnoxious portion of new yawkahs will move into the more sane areas of the country. (Notice I did NOT call all new yawkahs obnoxious.) :=)

"The ClimAID projections include consideration of the possibility of rapid melt of land-based ice on Antarctica and Greenland, which could result in significantly higher rates of sea-level rise than would otherwise occur. Subsequent reports continue to affirm the underlying assumption that ice melt will likely accelerate beyond historical rates of melt."

Good news Greenland and Antarctica are gaining mass (ice) can we stop the madness now?

Mass gains of the Antarctic ice sheet exceed losses

Greenland Ice Mass Growing Rapidly - Much More Than Normal

We’re all gonna die...again?

R U kidding? When these lunatic Marxists get hold of an issue that will tax everyone (except Bill Gates, of course0 into oblivion they won't let go. They're like a dog with a bone.
