Sea Level Rise Due To Global Warming Poses Threat To New York City

"Temporary variances for tides and weather aside, sea level is sea level across the globe."

An interesting theory, but not supported by the data. Google "variances in sea level," and look over some of the 7 million hits.

Basically, relative to the 139 million square miles of ocean area on this planet, and the 310 million cubic miles of water in them, an area/volume like the Northeastern US is tiny enough to be effected by current, continental shelf, etc.

By your theory, since there's only one moon, and one ocean, all tides should take place at the same time (relative to lunar motion), and the same amplitude. Good luck with that.

I am very curious to learn how/why sea level can rise twice as much around NYC and the NorthEast United States than other areas of the country. The sea is WATER and the oceans/seas are all interconnected. Experiment with this on any scale you'd like. Try to raise the level of water only in one part of a lake/pond/pool/tub/bucket without raising it equally throughout. Temporary variances for tides and weather aside, sea level is sea level across the globe. Those posting this, and conducting this "research" need to go back and take elementary school science.

The Rain
Abu Bin Adam was a young child in Multan Pakistan, it was Friday the month of March in 1977, the heavenly light told Abu,“ the first rain on the Vernal Equinox will be the rain of Holy water and drinking of that water will purify the human body . The city of Cure was burning with heat and dust from the Sun rays until noon then God (Rab) started the gusty wind and within few hours rain of holy water was pouring down from the skies . The smell of dust was giving taste of heaven and I prayed to my God and said (Subhan na rabi al ahla) Jame Alome (Drink of Knowledge) was pouring down from the skies which I collected in a small bucket and drank . It is the rain that started life on earth millions of years ago on the dry land . It is the day when gravity hit the earth and movement of time and the round holy dance of nature started for the garden of Adam. Ritual of SADQA “donation” ( Giving to Poor and throwing food for ocean life, Birds and animals and planting seeds and flowers started many years ago in Human Faith of Mehdi .
Blessing on humanity (Rabi) from Mehdi and Adam the father and the son with Holy Spirit!
It is true that the phenomena of life is stuck in the pressure of gravity which is losing pressure due to temperature change .The phenomena of gravity is distributing equal weight on ocean waters and mass of gases surrounding a shallow body of cultivating system of nature. It is the pressure that divide water and gases equally that makes the shape of earth looks round and colorful. The knots of mountains are holding our piece of solid mineral deposits can reshape it self due to pressure change. It is just matter of time when new island will emerge from water and old go under. The root cause that is affecting mother nature and reproduction system of earth worm and bacteria is humanity was never enforced by selfish ancient and modern civilizations . The personal propriety that we bring on this earth is the nature and the root of that nature is humanity .The human faith pro life agenda for all creatures is humanity. The painful condition that is destroying cultivating system is not understanding connection that the basic human knowledge starts with nature. The fusion reactor of the sun has the same system of reproducing energy the way we do on earth the only difference is this earth is losing natural resources too fast due to ignorant modern merchants of life . Human faith is Mehdi’s and Adam’s monotheistic faith and knows that God is the creator and overseer of the universe at all the time and all matters. It is time to modernize our faith by adopting true faith and educate mankind in accordance with basic principle of life. Our vision is to introduce true human religion by mobilizing communities and faiths around the world to improve people’s lives .Our mission is to strength the bond of humanity (Rabi) by introducing human faith religion.
IN GOD (Rab) WE TRUST WE HAVE FAITH IN HUMANITY (Rabi).
Rabi has many meaning in our language.
1. Rabi is Book of Human Faith.
2. Rabi is brain.
3. Rabi is humanity.
4. Rabi is our tongue.

I wonder how the quality of New York's future levee system will compare with that of New Orleans?

If our government was so concerned about global warming, especially from carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide then why do we continue to import fossel fuels which are totally responsible for the carbon pollution? And for thye Flouro chloro contamination of the atmosphere why dont we cover up the oceans to prevent the evaporation of the sodium chlorides in the oceans?

there's already plans to build levees between Staten Island and Brooklyn, another somewhere along the Long Island sound (I think near Throngs Necks), and another between Staten Island and Bayonne. This is of course to protect Manhattan, not sure what the plan is for the coasts of other boroughs.

Prove it.

remember those days before bottled water.

..........Poses Threat To EVERY City!
No person, place or thing will be (is) exempt from a planet scorned. This isn't just like a few consequences,... it's global, it's everywhere and it's now. The balance has been disrupted,... and until MAJOR efforts are made,... we're doomed - but for the sake of the planet.

You forgot self destructive. Kind of like a species they call Lemmings. Every once in a while, like the blind following the blind they make a mass migration to fall off the cliffs into the sea to drown. Maybe they're lemurs who can't stand the light of day, and have that instinct to self destruct by drawing themselves out into the light with their Robin Hood in reverse Reaganomics. Well, charge it ! If not up San Juan hill with the Roughriders, then on the Corporate carpet facing their masters, the Bankers, ie the Fluffriiders.
Water is very soft, yet heavy. When Wall Street is permanently under water waiting for the next Ice Age to follow the Global Warming phase of imbalance, I wonder where their money for nothing philosophy will
get them then ? It's the world Big Oil Monopoly that started causing this global flooding 150 years with John D. Rockefeller and Standard Oil . I wonder how Oil futures will be trading when they have to swim to work ? I bet those Indians who were swindled out of their land on Manhatten island for $24 worth of
trinkets are rolling in their graves laughing now.
You can't beat Karma.

I like to look at who the people are who try to make the point that global warming is not something we can or should do anything about. So far my basic observation is that it is almost always Conservatives or Republicans. I judge them harshly as I expect to be judged.

ok, so this is an honest question: Say we stop all the crap that is leading to such a warming........will the planet then get cooler again? Will the lost ice be replaced? And will the temp eventually return to what it was pre-our destructive ways?

maybe my apartment in brooklyn will be beachfront...

Just more global warming propaganda.

Don't listen to this garbage people it is manufactured in order to tax the whole world under the curtain of saving it by the criminal world bankers.

You are the master of your destiny.

Nice thought but since the levees built for new orleans are not enough,and because sea levels will rise in feet not inches,that will not work! levees would have to be 30 feet high! quick fixes aren't going to work here people! only through education,political action,and a reversal in the pollution of our planet will save us now!

I so hope this happens in my lifetime. I would love to see the earth overcome our mass destruction.

No it won't happen overnight but unless something is done to reverse the process it will happen by 2050!

It's okay, we'll hire builders from New Orleans to build a bunch of levees

Im moving to the mountains

So I guess now the typically snobby NYC residents won' t mind moving to Jersey!! haha

yay! Venice of the new world. Glad we see it coming.

The whole east coast is at extreme risk and most large cities downtown areas will be underwater in 50 years if not sooner! Those of you who think and say that global warming is all made up are fools and only care about "paying Taxes"! Fools! If the polar ice caps continue to melt two things will happen! First sea levels will rise causing cities along any coast to flood, and second temps are rising! A 6 degree rise in the temps year round,and the flooding,will leave this planet a totally different place then it is now! The evidence is out there! Do some research!

It's so much scarier when it's New York that might get flooded & not New Orleans, that actually has flooded & prolly will again.

Aztec::

first world: destroyed by ice
second world : destoryed by fire
third world: destroyted by water
fourth world: by wind

The last world was already destoyed by water, these floods won't wipe us out, just mitigate our populations; them hurricanes gonna wipe us out... more ocean, more area to make strength for storms

Living on the continental divide has its advantages...

Its like two men in a small rowboat one in the bow and one in the stern. There's a leak in the stern with water spurting up like a little geyser... The man in the back is furiously baling water and the man in the bow is thinking... "Thank God the hole is not in my side of the boat..."

With all this crazy weather going on around the world i am not surprised. Manhattan is an Island and overvalued, oversold & overpriced. Imagine if the water levels rise ..!?

Bullshit.

The global warming scam is meant to scare us all into paying new taxes, including a carbon tax.

I wonder if those same climate models included that chunk of ice the size of California that was recently replaced, due to the scientists faulty sensors.

I wonder if when WATER becomes a scarce natural resource and privatized around the world if people will start drinking ocean water after filtered...
