Week 8 - NYC



Global Warming and Potential Ice Age



New York City year 7019,

The city is a frozen desolate wasteland covered in ice during the Earths next major ice age.  As humans failed to develop energy sources that help decrease carbon emission such as Solar, nuclear, and other non-fossil fuels until it was too late.  Fossil fuel consumption has created enough carbon dioxide emissions to continually raise the Earths temperature.  As temperatures continued to increase more and more glacial ice began to melt in return releasing more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.  Rising sea levels flood coastal regions including NYC and migrations of humans begin to move inland.  Even as the Earth warmed we were unable to avoid the return of huge glaciers and another ice age.  In only a few hundred years all available fossil fuels will have been consumed and the Earth will continue its planetary motions and induce polar cooling.  The years of rising sea levels will eventually be frozen over and humans will migrate inland and South to warmer climates.

We as humans will be forced to endure rising sea levels, polluted air, and the following ice age.  Its imperative for our survival to rely on the development of renewable energy sources such as Solar or nuclear to reduce our carbon emissions and fend off cold when the time comes.
