 health,  natural resources, and the environment of New York. The adverse
 impacts of climate change include:
   a. an increase in  the  severity  and  frequency  of  extreme  weather
 events, such as storms, flooding, and heat waves, which can cause direct
 injury  or  death, property damage, and ecological damage (e.g., through
 the release of hazardous substances into the environment);
   b. rising sea levels, which exacerbate damage from  storm  surges  and
 flooding,  contribute  to  coastal  erosion and saltwater intrusion, and
 inundate low-lying areas, leading to the displacement of  or  damage  to
 coastal habitat, property, and infrastructure;
