NYC: Bellweather (has dual meaning related to climate change)

The term ‘bellweather’ has a double meaning, both of which apply to NYC (and other low elevation coastal areas) when it comes to the subject of ‘artificially induced climate change’ and ‘rising sea levels’.

The first definition is “one that takes the lead or initiative”. Indeed, after 9/11, they are very well aware of the cost of ignoring prescient warnings.

The second meaning is “an indicator or predictor of something.” What happens to them will be a predictor of many other dramatic things to come. By the time that happens, it’ll truly be way past too late.

Note: Rising sea levels and greenhouse gas levels mean something more to them than to someone living in Kansas.
