New York, an urban giant surrounded by water and threatened by climate change, protects itself behind a gigantic anti-flood wall, hoping to avoid the disasters of the last ten years

Hurricane Sandy in 2012 and Storms Ida and Henri this summer left tens of people dead and billions of dollars in damage to America’s largest city. With its particular geography, the ?big apple? is extremely vulnerable to bad weather and has ended up adopting in recent years a titanic plan called ?climate resilience? costing 20 billion dollars.

It must be said that experts fear a rise in water levels of 20 to 75 cm by 2050 which would threaten New York with submersion, in particular the island of Manhattan. In total, the megalopolis of more than 8.5 million inhabitants has 836 km of coastline. In southeast Manhattan, work has started for a budget of 1.45 billion dollars to erect a wall and dikes against the floods.

Awareness in 2012

On the site, Tom Foley, director of the design and construction department of New York City, said he also planned to “raise the park in this area” at the water’s edge. Over four kilometers, the green space will be completely raised by three meters and the erection of an anti-flood wall should prevent the catastrophic damage caused by the latest hurricanes and storms.

Ahmed Ibrahim, works supervisor, shows on site the installation of “pylons which serve as deep foundations” and “metal walls which will form an underground separation wall to protect us from flooding”. The awareness of the New York authorities dates from October 2012 after the electroshock of Hurricane Sandy which had caused the death of at least 44 people, damages of 19 billion dollars and the absence of electricity during weeks, recalls Sara Nielsen, director of park planning for New York City. The water had risen to a record level of 2.7 meters above sea level.

For Sara Nielsen, after Hurricane Katrina that hit New Orleans in 2005, “Sandy was the first disaster that accelerated our approach to climate change.” The expert is pleased that today the city has “very important projects to protect New Yorkers”. The city “is investing more than $ 20 billion (in a multi-year plan for) climate resilience with a tiered strategy for the protection of our coastline,” says Jainey Bavishi, director of the New York mayor’s office for “climate resilience “.

Not quite a tree-lined city – with the exception of Central Park – Manhattan will also be replanting thousands of trees around the construction site and improving underground sewage, sewage and electrical systems. Town planners are also looking to improve habitat, one of New York’s Achilles heels, especially because of the number of basement dwellings exposed to flooding and the poor quality of construction and thermal and sound insulation. housing.

Alexandre Benalla and his wife were taken into custody on Tuesday morning in the premises of the judicial police in Paris at the economic crime repression brigade, franceinfo learned from a source close to the case, confirming information from LCI. The former Elysee mission manager is questioned about the so-called “Russian contracts” affair. An investigation for corruption has been opened for almost three years by the National Financial Prosecutor’s Office (PNF).

Alexandre Benalla and his wife were arrested this Tuesday morning at their Parisian home. The ex-collaborator of Emmanuel Macron is suspected of having played the role of intermediary in a contract between his friend Vincent Crase and a Russian oligarch, while Alexandre Benalla was still stationed at the Elysee Palace.

Suspicions of corruption weigh on this security contract which provided for ensuring the security of this Russian billionaire. Justice seeks to know if Alexandre Benalla was responsible for negotiating this contract and if he received a commission.

Faced with the senatorial commission on the violence of May 1, 2018, the former Elysée representative had assured that he had not taken part in the negotiation of this contract. He must now explain himself again, this time to the investigators of the judicial police.

A month ago, the Paris tribunal de grande instance condemned Alexandre Benalla to three years in prison, one of which is closed, a fine of 500 euros and a five-year ban on practicing in the public service, in particular for “willful violence in a meeting”, “carrying a weapon prohibited” and “use of diplomatic passports” in the case of the violence of May 1, 2018.

The latter indicates all the same that the former Olympic champion “did not have the feeling that there was constraint”. Specifying the age of the respondent and the complainant at the time of the facts, the prosecutor explained that “if the facts constitute rape it is because you are aware that there is a very difference in age. important between the 13 years of the alleged victim and the 24 years of Yannick Agnel “.

The former swimming champion risks, according to article 222-24 of the Penal Code, up to 20 years in prison.

Yannick Agnel has committed a more than reprehensible act, declared Gilles Sézionale, on RMC. The age difference is punishable by a criminal penalty. We cannot consider that as consent , we cannot recognize the consent. We were far from thinking of such a thing, he said. As far as we know, we have never been informed of such a thing. so famous, I think his parents would have reacted. Yannick being in his trainer’s house (the former champion was hosted by his trainer, Lionel Horter, father of the complainant, Naome Horter), I don’t see how it could have not been rumored. I think all people have discovered things. “

The personality of Agnel which could come into account, it is someone who has a strong personality. This is what characterizes for us the facts of rape and sexual assault “, she declared, adding again:” Yannick Agnel regrets it “.

“Like the majority of rape complaints, a whole psychological process took place with the complainant and which made her decide, because she was ill, to file a complaint,” Edwige Roux told the press. -Morizot. “All the facts took place in 2016. It also happened in Thailand, Rio, and Tenerife I believe.

Yannick Agnel has committed a more than reprehensible act, declared Gilles Sézionale, on RMC. The age difference is punishable by a criminal penalty. We cannot consider that as consent , we cannot recognize the consent. We were far from thinking of such a thing, he said. As far as we know, we have never been informed of such a thing. so famous, I think his parents would have reacted. Yannick being in his trainer’s house (the former champion was hosted by his trainer, Lionel Horter, father of the complainant, Naome Horter), I don’t see how it could have not been rumored.

This is what characterizes for us the facts of rape and sexual assault “, she declared, adding again:” Yannick Agnel regrets it “.

Under the effect of global warming, alarming cracks threaten the “apocalypse glacier”. West of Antarctica, the Thwaites Glacier, 120 km wide, 600 km long and 3 km deep, is increasingly fragile, according to new observations made public * Monday, December 13. “The final collapse of the last ice shelf of the Thwaites Glacier [qui représente un tiers du glacier] could start by crossing cracks and hidden crevices in as fast as five years “, write the glaciologists.

Thanks to satellite data, underground radars and GPS measurements, they observed breaks in this pack ice which serves as the buttress of the glacier. ?The ice shelf is kind of like a windshield, with a series of slowly opening cracks. You’re like, ‘I would have to change my windshield and someday, bang, there are million other cracks “, explains glaciologist Erin Pettit to Science *. The ice structure is also weakened by warmer seawater seeping below.

The fate of this distant piece of ice is crucial, especially for those living in coastal areas. The collapse of this platform will indeed accelerate the detachment of the glacier and its melting in the waters of the ocean. Thwaites is already contributing 4% of the 8 ” sea level rise seen today and this contribution could increase by a quarter with the demise of the last platform. If the glacier, threatened on the horizon of a few centuries, disappeared, the sea level would rise by 65 cm. Worse, all of West Antarctica, which contains enough ice to push the oceans up 3.3 meters, would then be threatened.

As three glaciologists explained to franceinfo in 2019, this catastrophic scenario is irreversible today because of global warming caused by our too carbon-intensive lifestyles (transport, food, housing). But there is still time to limit the damage. “If we manage to come back to a period that is a little colder, for example, it is quite conceivable that the glacier will continue to retreat but in a very, very slow way”, explained in 2019 Eric Rignot, professor of Earth sciences at the University of California at Irvine. As long as we drastically reduce our greenhouse gas emissions.

The LR presidential candidate, Valérie Pécresse, announced, Monday, December 13, that she entered the CSA after the announcement of a television program with Emmanuel Macron broadcast on Wednesday evening, at the very moment when she was to intervene on BFMTV.

“I grabbed the CSA” car “you cannot have a candidate president who has television channels on demand and for hours campaigning, while his opponents have to be content with five minutes of duplex to answer him”, said Valérie Pécresse during a visit to Calais (Pas-de-Calais).

“It is not my conception of democracy” and “I ask the CSA to restore equality of speaking times and democratic fair play”, she added.

The TF1 and LCI television channels announced Monday that they would broadcast a major interview with the President of the Republic on Wednesday at 9:05 p.m., in which he will be questioned on the results of his five-year term. This interview entitled “Where is France going?” was recorded under live conditions, the TF1 group told AFP.

However, the candidate LR was to participate at the same time in the political program “Face à BFM”, scheduled for 8:50 pm. This show has been postponed “given the interview with Emmanuel Macron”, BFMTV reported.
