What do you think about NYC Mayor Bloombergs task force & efforts to prepare his city for the effects of GCC?

I think it is a good start. Most proposals for "action" place too much emphasis on mitigation and not enough on adaptation. We are already starting to see the environmental impacts of climate change, and even if we held CO2 to current levels (not going to happen), we would still be in for more than 0.5 degrees C of warming based on climate commitment studies. That is why we need a good balance of both mitigation and adaptation, and why NYC PCC is going in the right direction.
