From The Christian Science Monitor:


More than 120 scientists across seven federal agencies say they have been pressured to remove references to "climate change" and "global warming" from a range of documents, including press releases and communications with Congress. Roughly the same number say appointees altered the meaning of scientific findings on climate contained in communications related to their research.

These findings, part of a new report compiled by two watchdog groups, shed new light on complaints by a scattering of scientists over the past year who have publicly complained that Bush administration appointees have tried to mute or muzzle what researchers have to say about global warming.

Disturbing, but not really surprising.

More here.

Thoughts?

I think this works both ways. How many people belive that a non-tenured professor at Cal-Berkley would be invited back the next semester/year if he/she instructed students that global warming is 90%+ the product of natural climate change that has nothing to do with man's activities?

I agree, this issue has become highly politicized. Doesn't excuse the admin.'s actions though.

More support for the comments by VH and myself. Unfortunately, too many have a vested interest in this issue.

Sadly, this is only the tip of a non-melting iceberg. In Europe, Henk Tennekes was dismissed as research director of the Royal Dutch Meteorological Society after questioning the scientific underpinnings of global warming. Aksel Winn-Nielsen, former director of the U.N.'s World Meteorological Organization, was tarred by Bert Bolin, first head of the IPCC, as a tool of the coal industry for questioning climate alarmism. Respected Italian professors Alfonso Sutera and Antonio Speranza disappeared from the debate in 1991, apparently losing climate-research funding for raising questions.
