*[Enwl-eng] No climate science deniers in influential climate positions!

[ENWL]

            NOAA's job is to protect our oceans. But instead, they just hired a climate science denier!

                 According to their website, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA)'s mission is this: "To understand and predict changes in climate, weather, oceans, and coasts, to share that knowledge and information with others, and to conserve and manage coastal and marine ecosystems and resources." In other words, it seems pretty clear that one of their very top concerns — by basic definition — would be climate change. So why did the Trump administration hire David Legates, a man who has spent years actively denying the scientific truths of climate change, to the agency? Sign the petition pleading with NOAA to fill this position with a scientist who actually believes in fact, and has enough courage to admit that climate change is very real! 

                  Putting climate science deniers like Legates in influential positions within the agencies meant to prepare us for climate change is nonsense. This man is dangerous; he has spent his career lying and touting bad science. His actions will ultimately be partially to blame for needless suffering and death coming down the pike if we don't take climate change seriously. The least we can do is keep him out of influential positions. Sign the petition and ask that the agency rescind Legates' appointment, and that they fill that position with a suitable replacement that actually follows science! 

                  Thank you,

                  P.S. This man is a dangerous climate science denier, we can't let him work for NOAA. Sign the petition.
