New York guy who missed blizzard because he took a private jet to his Bermuda mansion: CO2 is making New York too hot

Mayor Bloomberg Kicks off Climate Week 2011 Calling World Leaders to Join The Clean Revolution | Inhabitat New York City

“Over the past year, New Yorkers have had a taste of what climate change may mean for our city,” said Mayor Bloomberg, “We’ve seen the rainiest day and rainiest month ever. A tornado. A hurricane. The snowiest January on record. And 16 blistering days of 90-degree-plus heat during this past July and early August. Perhaps such extreme weather events are merely coincidental. Or perhaps they’re warnings of what the future holds – unless we act now.”

Flashback: Shocker: Bloomberg Was Totally in Bermuda During Blizzard: Gothamist

The Mayor disappeared from the public eye after a Mass on December 24th at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, and didn't resurface until meeting the press on the afternoon of December 26th, when he said the city was doing a heck of a job dealing with the snow and everyone should go see a Broadway show. It was more than 24 hours after the National Weather Service issued a blizzard warning for New York. But in Bermuda, where Bloomberg has a beachfront mansion, the temperature was 69 degrees and "gorgeous." Nevertheless, sources say our selfless leader tore himself away from paradise, and one of his private jets took off from the island around midday on the 26th.
