Protest Bush Administration's Misuse of Science
What do 60 of the world's most influential scientists* have in common?
They all agree that the Bush administration has systematically distorted scientific fact to meet its political goals on issues ranging from military intelligence to health to the environment and more.
* Including 20 Nobel laureates, 19 recipients of the National Medal of Science and two former Republican presidential advisors.
According to these scientists, President Bush and his administration have:
-deliberately stacked advisory panels with political appointees
-censored and disregarded government scientists and reports when they conflict with the administration's political goals
-disbanded scientific panels whose advice conflicted with Bush administration policies.
Even worse, a recent Pentagon report leaked to the British press predicts that abrupt climate change could bring the planet to the edge of anarchy as countries develop a nuclear threat to defend and secure dwindling food, water and energy supplies. Thus far, the President has skirted all global attempts to curb the phenomenon and until recently denied that global warming was real.
Help maintain public trust in sound science and its implementation in public policy. Urge your representatives to insist that congressional science committees investigate.
Please help by signing this petition. It takes 30 seconds and will really help.
