Once again the American media, so quick to hype absurdly improbable risks and disasters like West Nile Virus or Ebola outbreaks, has ignored a real one: in this case the likelihood that global warming disaster is much more imminent than the recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report has led us to believe
Read the report of James Hansen, the top climate expert at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies who published a new scientific study published in the May issue of the British journal, Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society (May 2007).
This report that has totally been ignored by mainstream media. Why? Whatever the reason, the news, which got big play in the British newspaper The Guardian, has yet to even make it into the American media.
I guess there are more important things on our minds, like Paris Hilton, Isaiah Washington, Scooter Libby . . .Tags:
