is it selfish for me to fight against stopping Global Warming, seeing that the sea levels will rise. I will make a lot of money.

That's actually part of the problem. Having an ice-free shipping route through the Arctic Ocean at least part of the year would be worth untold billions of dollars in terms of East Asia-to-Europe trade. That's a powerful incentive for corporate interests to pressure governments to go easy on efforts to curb global warming.
So even while trying to make a boneheaded joke, you struck upon the core element in the policy debate. Congratulations! Maybe you learned something in spite of yourself.

Not selfish, I'd say you would be a wise investor doing what would help get back the most profit for you investment.

LOL..... I like your thinking... And just think what a great artificial reef NYC will make. You could be the new "Disney" if you play your cards right.

When global warming is in full force, you can say goodbye to most of New York, Florida, and California.....thanks to rising ocean levels.
I was born in upstate New York.
