Works With Kittens

Kentucky.Com
Two environmentalists spent about four hours Monday perched on a ledge over an entrance to a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration building to protest what they said is the agency’s suppression of information on global warming.

The pair, which climbed a ladder to reach the ledge, unfurled a banner that read “Bush: Let NOAA Tell the Truth,” while a small group of demonstrators handed out fliers on a nearby sidewalk.

Police eventually used a cherry picker from a nearby construction site to reach the demonstrators and lower them to the ground.


I would have left them up there whining until they got hungry enough to get down. Hopefully it’d rain or snow or something.

By the way this was interesting from the same story:


A report in the scientific journal Nature last month claimed NOAA administrators blocked the release of a report that linked hurricane strength and frequency to global warming. In February, a NASA climate scientist said NOAA prevents researchers working on climate change from speaking freely about their work.


So since this was a light hurricane season we can assume that global warming fears are a thing of the past.
