    That’s according to a report released today 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.

    I hope he wastes his money on this junk science. Global warming is a backdoor way to redistribute wealth and force us asll to bow at the alter of the UN.

    We may be heading into a mini ice age, which happens every so often. Just like warming trends increase too, every so often.

    Lookup what happened to the Vikings in Greenland. It was so warm and lush, hence the name. They died off because it froze over! Also look up why the polar bear, whose population has been increasing, is still on the endangered species list.

    Guard your wallets from these hucksters. Now if you want to talk conservation, that’s a different story. I believe in that because I hate waste.

    Gentlemen: When was the last time you picked up a science book or even looked at your child’s science homework from school. Face it!! Face reality!! We have global warming. Why do you think we are getting rid of plastic bags, getting hybrid cars, recycling, using cold water for laundry when we can, etc. There are some countries in the world where it is forbidden to use plastic.. The USA is just beginning to catch up. They have a lot to do!! Face facts!! Global warming is here!! When you go to ShopRite, if you bring your own plastic bags .06 cents off per bag and if you bring clot h bags it is .10 cents off per bag. Global warming is here boys!! Face it!!

    isn’t there a global warming crisis? That’s what Fat Al Gore & his cronies keep telling us. And didn’t he get a Nobel Prize on the basis of global warming? Hand back the $$ & the medal, you fraud!

    Another waste of taxpayer money by “scientists” who adjust their data to fit the conclusion.

    Ask any scientist who has checked polar ice layers – he would prove easily that temperatures fluctuate whether man is here or not – the sun and moon are stronger influences – controlled by G-D.

    If he’s wrong he’ll get the city council to say he’s right during his 75th term which he’ll win due to extension of term limits

    Two weeks ago the media reported that Al Gore and his cronnies had a seminal on global warming in Washington DC. And would you believe that the day of the event was one of the coldest days of the year? If Al Gore had brains and wanted to talk about global warming he would have picked Hawaii or somewhere else that was very warm and not a city that was 13 degrees!
