I can only imagine that this must have been written by a New Yorker/East Coast Environmental Liberal...because everyone knows that once New York City gets wiped out, all of humanity is going to hell in a hand basket.
The depiction of New York as the shining city on a hill is laughable.
And once the environment starts to decline, of course that means democracy and human decency will evaporate.
ugh.....thank you for the brain-washing ABC! I feel so much better being told what to think rather than having to do any of it for myself.
