Bush systematically mislead US on climate change

clipped from english.aljazeera.net The White House has systematically manipulated climate science for years to play down the dangers of global warming, a US congressional report says. Monday's report, prepared by Democrats after a 16-month investigation, came as the Bush administration pressed a UN climate meeting to drop targets for big cuts in greenhouse gases by rich nations. "The Bush administration has engaged in a systematic effort to manipulate climate change science and mislead policymakers and the public about the dangers of global warming," the report said.
