New York City is also near the coast and experiences similar issues like in Miami

Globally, climate change is increasingly becoming a larger issue. Climate change affects the world as it increases temperature, creates stronger storms, and increases drought.

The climate change in New York City will cause property near the coast to be uninhabitable and cause a large quantity of residents to find somewhere else to live.
