They just figured out that New York is sinking at a rate of about an inch lower every 17 years now, with some places sinking faster. Meanwhile the ocean is rising.

That means that it will be a foot closer to the ocean in 200 years!

Meanwhile, how much will the ocean have risen by then?

New York libs are literally sinking under the weight of the trillion tons of glass, marble, stone and steel they have piled up on Manhattan!!! :auiqs.jpg:

 
This isn't new it was known decades ago.

Maybe, but it is still funny. Maybe they just have better proof or a more accurate estimate on the gradual settling of the city.

8.6 million people living just 33 feet above sea level.

 
They can console themselves with billions of dollars in economic activity, fantastic entertainment, interesting people and delicious food.

If a solution can't be found in 200 years, especially with increased A.I power, than our species deserves its fate.

And congestion, pollution, slums, crime, disease, unemployment, high cost of living, and millions of illegal 3rd worlders swarming there.

 
you forgot to mention getting robbed on the way home from said things .
You probably live in some nameless boring place off the interstate where fun is limited to eating to exhaustion at the Golden Corral.
