FUTURESAVER OF THE WEEK ENDING 8-19-2006

James E. Hansen is Director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies and Adjunct Professor at Columbian University's Department of Earth and Environmental Studies. He is a climatologist who publically denounced the Bush administration's policy on climate change and global warming because he knows that it contains gross errors of fact and policy. A senior administration official tried to suppress his freedom of speach on global warming, an established scientific fact. Hansen knows that censoring and distorting scientific facts and conclusions is dead wrong both in figurative and real world aspects. It is the worst kind of sticking our heads in the sand of delusion and propaganda while reality mauls and kills us. Hansen and associates got the Goddard best publication award for 2005, 2004 and 2001. Hansen argues convincingly that delay in dealing with climate change is a collossal risk. Many other senior U.S. scientists are very critical of the Bushies' approach to environmental problems. For speaking out urgently against the administration's grossly-flawed environmental policies and actions, James E. Hansen has been named Futuresaver of the Week.
