STATEMENT IN RESPONSE TO INQUIRIES RELATED TO NPR PRESS RELEASE
NASA Administrator Michael Griffin responded Wednesday to inquiries
related to a National Public Radio press release. The radio network's
release contained excerpts from an interview that included comments
on global climate change.
"NASA is the world's preeminent organization in the study of Earth
and
the conditions that contribute to climate change and global warming.
The agency is responsible for collecting data that is used by the
science community and policy makers as part of an ongoing discussion
regarding our planet's evolving systems. It is NASA's responsibility
to collect, analyze and release information. It is not NASA's mission
to make policy regarding possible climate change mitigation
strategies. As I stated in the NPR interview, we are proud of our
role and I believe we do it well."
