According to Bloomberg Business Week, a 600-page report called ClimAID urges New Yorkers to get prepared for hotter summers, snowier winters, severe floods and a range of other effects on the environment, communities and human healt.

"Climate change is already beginning to affect the people and resources of New York state, and these impacts are projected to grow," the ClimAID authors wrote. "At the same time, the state has the potential capacity to address many climate-related risks, thereby reducing negative impacts and taking advantage of possible opportunities."
