There's no evidence of sea level rising; from Montauk to Manhattan it's still just high and low tide, yes?
Second, does it escape you that this Island was formed from MASSIVE climate events from the Laurentide Ice sheet retreating, and then again to "briefly" return during the Younger Dryas period?
The ending of the last Ice Age had begun before the YD event, but even after that, it continues to this day.
Where we live is a SCAR from the last Ice Age.
What caused the last Ice Age to end? Co2? Mammoth flatulence?
Mankind has NO CONTROL or major EFFECT on the climate of this planet, and there will be another Ice Age.
The point of no return keeps getting extended by the global warming faithful... I wish it would get here so they can shut the hell up... It was like Australian global warming fanatics telling Australia to save the world but NOBODY focus on the hugest polluter, China and India... Why don't they invest in those countries if they were truly concerned...the fight is about money... Your money....
Climate change, like gravity, exists, whether one believes it or not.
Are you sure gravity is real? Have experts like Limbaugh and Hannity confirmed this? After all we can’t trust those lying scientists. They are only in it for money.
...and global warming has had zero effect on the rate of sea level rise in NY...it's been exactly the same for over 150 years....you're welcome
Disagree. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.a8f817fd4867
"Another study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, published in 2017, found that, due to sea-level rise, flood heights that used to occur every 500 years in New York City now occur every 25 years and are projected to occur every five years over the next three decades."

We haven't had such a pleasantly mild spring and mid summer in central Texas since I can't remember when.
The news screams "temperature feels like 101" because they can't actually SAY the temperature is 101, which they certainly could always do in years past. Now they're using "heat index" to make it seem really hot.
No, it doesn't feel like 101. It feels like 94, unseasonably cool, which is what it is.
Pleasant.
