en The oceans are not cooling or warming uniformly; there appears to be a great deal of geographic variability.

en The Earth is a system that can change very rapidly. Fifty-five million years ago, when the Earth was in a period of global warmth, ocean currents rapidly changed direction and this change did not reverse to original conditions for about 20,000 years. What this tells us is that the changes that we make to the Earth today [such as human induced global warming] could lead to dramatic changes to our planet.

Curbing motor vehicle emissions is a tremendous step. Together with cutting emissions from power plants, this will make New York a leader in the fight against global warming.

en The temperature of the gulf, which I believe is 1 or 2 degrees higher than normal, clearly has been a factor for the power of these hurricanes, and it seems to be spurring discussion about what we need to do to address sea-level rise, coastal storms and a future that could be the result of global warming,
