They found the water levels had droped a foot or so.

Sea level rise is one of those topics I try to slip into the conversation to see if I’m talking to a global warming nut. If they start talking about people being displaced by sea level rises or NYC being abandoned then I know there’s no point continuing a conversation with them.

BTW, a 1m sea rise wouldn’t even get anyone’s feet wet in NYC, so even if you believe this stupidity you’re still going to fail to get anyone screaming for carbon taxes in that state.
