The question is - what is behind the new gaseous smell and can we somehow harness it and build a power plant to export the electricity it produces? Now, we could certainly depend on the New York Times to produce its normal, fairly even, amount of gas, so we could install a major power plant right next door. Roughly analogous to, oh, Grand Coulee Dam, say. And this new stuff, since it is evidently sporadic, might be used as a supplement when available - kind of like the windmills in the California foothills.
What about global warming? Surely, as the gas accumulates temperatures will rise, followed shortly by the sea level. No doubt the emissions will stop and the odor fade once the city is submerged. Gaia in action!

I think there must somehow be a link between the gaseous output of NYC and the Dead birds in Austin.
...there was no danger from it.
