Scientist: Bush Did Nothing, Obama Should Do More

December 8, 2009

NASA scientist James Hansen was invited during the Bush administration to address a climate meeting. He says after interacting with administration officials for a few years, he believes they were trying to stifle the discussion on global warming. Hansen tells Steve Inskeep that while the political climate has changed since then, not enough is being done to fight global warming.

2. President Obama's government already raised auto fuel efficiency standards
Any mention that he is not authentic is bullshit.

3. That’s a good thing™ Do you think it’s enough?
Hansen isn’t saying that the Obama administration has done nothing.
