A spokesperson for NASA has just released a report that global warming studies were falsified and according to the report “marginalized and mischaracterized” reports sent to agencies and the administration. The Inspector General called it “inappropriate political interference” by the press office and also called the report untrue and that no top managment officials were involved.
The report also claimed that NASA downgraded press releases and denied access to scientists. NASA has denied all claims and stated that the report was false and the problems that it mentioned were long fixed. For the full story click here.
Global warming is a real problem to be solved. Melting ice caps and a thinning ozone are two major problems. A strong supporter of Global Warming studies is Al Gore, his movie, The Inconvenient Truth, points out many falsities and realities of the major problem. NASA’s report on how it was marginalized and mis characterized do not really fly. A few degrees change in the ocean will wreak havoc and whipe out millions of ecosystems and life. Global Warming is long from being fixed, as long as we keep driving those Hummers and Relying on Fossil Fuels the problem will only worsen. Understanding the necessity for new fuels and ways of transportation are a need in todays economy. Ethanol has proposed a solution, but is not supported by many. The thought of a new fuel other than Fossil fuels must be the answer. Our ozone is already deteriorating, where will we be in 10000 years? Will the moon be a last ditch effort to live, or will it all end abruptly? These questions will never be answered until the time comes.
