Water levels around New York City could rise by 2 feet or more in the coming decades and average temperatures will likely go up at least 4 degrees.
That’s according to a report released Tuesday by a panel of scientists convened by Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
The report by the New York City Panel on Climate Change says the city must adapt to global warming or risk having to rebuild facilities after flooding.
Bloomberg and panel members released the report at a wastewater treatment plant on the Rockaway peninsula. The facility is preparing for climate change by raising equipment higher off the ground.
According to the report, New York City can expect more storms, more days with the temperature over 90 degrees and fewer sub-freezing days over the next century.

And if anybody noticed Al Gore is nowhere to be seen or heard. And when he tried to appear in front of a very friendly and receptive congressional committee on one of the coldest days, he was the laughing stock of the world.
This year and last were the coldest so far in several decades.
All those people who listened to Al Gore & his scammy friends…eat your heart out. Global warming? Feh!
