Sen. John Kerry: N.Y.C., Boston Gone by 2036
Failed presidential candidate John Kerry offered a startling prediction Friday morning: If the U.S. doesn't change its global warming ways, New York City and Boston will be destroyed by flooding by 2036.
"I can say to an absolute certainty," Kerry told radio host Don Imus, "that if things stay exactly as they are today absent some unpredictable change in what's going on, within the next 30 years the Arctic ice sheet is gone.
"Not maybe, not if - the Arctic ice sheet is gone," the Massachusetts Democrat insisted, before offering his hair-raising prediction.
"Already you have the Greenland ice sheet beginning to melt . . . If that melts, you have a level of sea level increase that wipes out Boston Harbor, New York Harbor - I mean, it's just stunning what we're looking at."
Kerry blamed the Bush administration's environmental policies for the coming destruction of New York and Boston.
"Europe and the other countries are responding," he told Imus. "The United States remains oblivious - at least the administration remains oblivious."
Despite the dire warning, Kerry hasn't done much to change his own global warming ways.
At last report, he and his wife still owned several SUV's, a gas guzzling yacht, five BTU gobbling homes and a private jet.
Like fellow environmentalist RFK, Jr., Kerry continues to withold his support for the proposed construction of a wind farm in the waters off Nantucket, where he and his wife own a mansion. |
