Default NASA is a business and will do what it has to to secure its position

Even if that means abandoning space exploration and hitching up the to global warming bandwagon. The closure of the shuttle program meant an inevitable loss of myriad jobs and money. Since they twiddled their thumbs and didn't work at it a new vehicle is at least a decade away, they needed desperately to shore up "the company" so they looked around for a new avenue from which to justify their existence. What field was being flooded with money that they could go into? Global warming. "Earth observation" to facilitate a place for themselves in that lucrative field.

Apparently our NASA can't afford to tell us the whole truth. As long as our NASA isn't working for us (the American Republic and greater good of our planet), they simply can't be trusted to always do the right thing.

If they were in it simply to do research on the Earth, and to present those findings, they wouldn't be posting boiler-plate propaganda like this:

Charts are fun, as we did lots of those in grade school because it was really cheap entertainment.

As long as our NASA and DARPA are doing almost nothing about exploiting off-world energy that's clean and fully renewable (similar to geothermal exploitation that's nearly unlimited), we're screwed, especially when the nation as a whole is so in debt that the next ten future generations are screwed no matters what.

William Mook offered hydrocarbon and renewable energy solutions that were 90% clean compared to existing methods and way less than half as spendy, but obviously that's not good enough.

So, we've gone from bad to worse, not to mention more spendy as well as bloody, and WW3 is just around the corner unless you think the NWO as run entirely by the oligarchs, Bilderbergs and Rothschilds is going to fix everything.
