On the West Coast LA and SanFrancisco would be gone along with Seattle and Vancouver. It will signal the ending of the last ice age we were in. We may not get that ice back for another 60,000 years. People will need to move and adapt just as wildlife always has.

I agree, all that is true and is very likely to happen, probably more like 20-25,000 years from now. And then we’ll cool again and in 55-70,000 years NYC will once again be under 2 miles of ice. But none of it has anything to do with human activity
