Are US Scientists Being Censored?


In a 3/9/07 Washington Post article it states that scienctists working to find connections to global warming and the extinction of polar bears are being told not to travel to other countries to discuss the issue. The issue? Climate change is affecting their habitat and they don't have time to evolve to their surroundings. Scientists are being told that must have permission to talk about certain issues involving climate change. Why would the government censor these scientists about this important issue that not only effects polar bears but humans as well?

After reading the article about listing polar bears on the extinction list, see the video. When you go to the article's website click on:

Ice caps are melting around the polar bears

Sadly, the video won't work from this blog.
