About this title

Synopsis

The gripping story of the world's preeminent climatologist, Dr James Hansen. NASA's leading climate expert, Dr Hansen first broke the international news on global warming at a Senate hearing in 1988. Little did he expect the rising storm of politically motivated resistance, denial and obstruction. Revealing the extent of the Bush administration's censorship of Dr Hansen's findings, Censoring Science sets the record straight with solid scientific facts and the truth about how environmental catastrophe can be avoided.
