Power outages coming to NYC by 2025, and maybe upstate too, report says - casualty of "Green" concerns

[Subduction Zone]

Probably because the left as so far is not leading at all by example as to the urgency of the matter.

Why waste one's breath when another dosent show just how bad things have become? Speaks for itself actually.

Where's the governors and staffs electric cars?

Where are the solar panels on government buildings?

Solar panels on buildings do not return very much. On a large building they do very little. On a small home they can help. But the further north one goes the less effective they are especially in the winter. There are better ways to invest money.

They have a couple of wind farms however. Not many but a couple of them.

And they continue to build wind farms. They cannot be built overnight:

New York's Offshore Wind Projects - NYSERDA

To help meet New York’s nation-leading renewable energy targets, NYSERDA issues competitive solicitations for offshore wind energy and contracts with offshore wind developers to purchase offshore renewable energy certificates (ORECs).

So urgent the crisis.

Soo so urgent.

So urgent..

It is. New York state does not appear to be an ideal state for many sources of renewable energy. Ideally They would build a large nuclear plant. Unfortunately there is extreme prejudice against nuclear plants from both the left and the right.

I would love to see nuclear and lower prices as a result.

But in the People's Republic of New York, it just doesn't work that way.

Maybe not on the short term, but on the long term it could/would be.

When "scientists" proposed solutions in search of a problem what do you expect? Do you really think that going back to cave life would change the weather?

Why is "scientists" in quotes?

Are we talking about pretend scientists or something?

So, it turns out that solar panels are being constructed on government buildings. it turns out that wind farms are being built. It turns out that governments around the world do actually seem to think this is urgent.

Are they selling their beach properties?

 

[Subduction Zone]

Are they selling their beach properties?

Why would they? I bet that you cannot come up with an argument that is not a strawman.

 

[jbg]

Why would they? I bet that you cannot come up with an argument that is not a strawman.

Two reasons:

1. If their predictions are accurate their highly valuable investments will be under water shortly; and
2. Getting to Martha's Vineyard leaves its own carbon footprint.

Are you interested?

 

[Subduction Zone]

Two reasons:

1. If their predictions are accurate their highly valuable investments will be under water shortly; and
2. Getting to Martha's Vineyard leaves its own carbon footprint.

And just as I said, you used a strawman argument.

Okay, we have confirmed that you do not understand sea level rise. Sea level rise is one of the least immediate effects of AGW. From now until 2050 the predicted sea level rise is 10 to 12 inches. It took from 1920 to 2020 to cause that much sea level rise so it is at a rate three times higher. Unless one's house is already extremely low so that it is getting flooded now it is unlikely to get flooded for the vast majority of houses. One would have to be already dangerously close to sea level for this to be a problem. It is only the very very lowest of lands that are threatened in the near future. In fact it tends to be the very shallow water wells that are at a risk on many islands. They are apt to become saline before the island is flooded. People need water. That is how low islands are threatened.

2022 Sea Level Rise Technical Report

This Sea Level Rise Technical Report provides the most up-to-date sea level rise projections available for all U.S. states and territories; decision makers will look to it for information. This multi-agency effort, representing the first update since 2017, offers projections out to the year 2150...

Climate Change and the Sinking Island States in the Pacific

Small island nations are exposed to multi-dimensional climate crises such as ocean level rise, flooding, coastal erosion, inundation of agricultural lands, drying up of drinking water and sea acidification, which endangers fish life and stock.

And yet the leaders of the Pacific Island countries want money, not relocation to "safer" ground.

 

[Subduction Zone]

I do not know if that is true or not. A lot of people want money now with no thought to the future. What difference does it make? We are not discussing solutions for them, we are discussing the facts of AGW.

 

[sayak83]

No they do want relocation. But who will carve out a nation state from their own homeland.
So they want money to build dikes like the Netherland people.
And for the most desperate, a virtual existence
Tuvalu turns to the metaverse as rising seas threaten existence

Thank the leftest dumasses for it when it happens. What does on expect when you have complete idiots and dimwitted tards in charge.

That's my prediction. That and the excuse to raise taxes even higher on people who can't afford it.

... are you aware that you are speaking nonsense?

It's only nonsense to people like you.

Thanks! But fortunately you are wrong. It can be demonstratred independently of anything related to me.
