Republican Texas being Republican Texas.
Officials at the state environmental agency in Texas have altered a scientific report they commissioned on Galveston bay, deleting mentions of human-induced climate change and rising sea levels.I'd say let Texas roast, but sadly they're lack of education, and their faith in God to do their homework for them, will end up dooming the entire world. I wish we could just give the South that "state laboratory" experiment they've always been wanting, and sit back with some popcorn while they destroy themselves in rapture.
The 2010 State of the Bay report has been delayed for a year by disputes between the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and scientists at the Houston Advanced Research Center, who are contracted to provide the state with regular reports on the bay.
John Anderson, an oceanographer at Rice University in Houston, Texas, who wrote the chapter of the report that was apparently edited by TCEQ management, told British newspaper The Guardian that the cuts reflected what he called "denial" throughout the state of Texas about the effects of global warming.
