Why New York isn't prepare for climate change

One reason why New York City is not prepare for climate change is because rising sea posses a threat to the fragile building and roads by the Coastline of New York City. Critics say city officials is moving too slowly to address the potential damage.Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg administration is installing green roofs to absorb rain water and making property owners move boilers out if basement more incline to floods in order to accommodate expanding wetland and a rising wave. I feel as everyone in New York needs perpetration. Mireya writes " Others express concern for areas like the South Bronx and Sunset Park in Brooklyn, which have large industrial waterfronts with chemical-manufacturing plants, oil-storage sites and garbage-transfer stations" (Mireya). If dangerous materials aren't secured with storm surges, people could one day be wading through toxic water.

The Climate Casino Graphs

Hello my name is Wanda Tineo & I'll will be compare & contrast two graph from "The Climate Casino".

Figure 6 shows a piece of atmospheric concentration of carbon due to human activities. Scientist estimated that carbon concentration have extended from 190 parts per millions to 280 part per millions over the last million years. The world is over the range of concentration since we human have emerged on earth. The current concentration are now over 390 part per million.

New York Time article "New York Faces Is Lagging as Seas and Risk Rise, Critics Warn"

Hello my name Wanda Tineo, & i will be summarizing the New York Time article "New York Faces Is Lagging as Seas and Risk Rise, Critics Warn" By Mireya Navarro.i'll also summarize one of the comments to the article. 

Rising seas posses a threat to the fragile buildings and roads by the coastline of New York City. Critics says " City officials is moving to slowly to address the potential damages from flooding". In the article Douglas Hills says " Instead of  "Planning to be Flooded" city, state and federal agencies should be investing in protection like sea gates that could close during a storm and block a surge from Long Island Sound and the Atlantic Ocean into the East River and New York Harbor. I agree with Douglas, the federal officials aren't making the necessary actions to offer solutions for future hazards cause by rising waves .Their shouldn't be any procrastinating in this serious matter because as the ocean warmed and expanded the water in city has rise a inch every 10 year over the last hundred years. With higher sea a common storm could happen & could affect transportation, cripple the low-lying financial district & force thousand of people out of their homes. 

"One of the most important an effective measures we need to take in order to enure the health of our infrastructure, health and environment is to rapidly transition to clean and renewable energy. Spending billions of dollars to build sea gates without an Apollo like effort to stem the flow of carbon pollution currently accelerating rising sea levels, warming oceans and more intense an frequent storms is like treating the symptoms without curing the disease. "- Jim Gordon

The flow of carbon pollution is whats currently accelerating rising sea levels. That's why there needs to be a quick transition to clean and renewable energy rather then spending billions of dollars to build sea gates. Because building seas gates doesn't target the root of the issue but rather only temporarily provides a solution for rising seas. That's why Jim Gordon point out the suggestion to building sea gates is like treating the symptoms without curing the disease .

Global warming is the burning of fossil fuels. Its a major threat to humans and to the natural world. In the "Climate Casion " Williams Nordhaus stated that raising the price on the carbon dioxide and green house - gas emissions will lower causes to global warming . He thinks that it should be a worldwide change.

I agree & disagree with Williams Nordhaus . I agree with him because the cigarettes price increased . And people started to smoke less . I disagree with him because if gas increase then people wouldn't have enough to pay their other bills and have money for their other expense such as food, clothes, etc. And it will causes a world disaster .
