Pluto Like You've Never Seen it Before

23. I guess you don't know much about NASA science projects,

which include monitoring, predicting and/or giving warning of natural disasters such as hurricanes, desertification (land lost to drought), melting arctic and other glaciers, the warming and rising of the oceans, global deforestation and more.

In addition to NASA's critically important help on all of the above--as to scientific studies, monitoring, prediction and warnings (of which they have given many, on global warming)--it is likely through NASA's exploration of other planets, moons and asteroids, and their growing understanding of climate/geological conditions in the solar system, as well as their earth-centered science projects, that the solutions will be devised, as to how to slow global warming down--in short, how to save the human race and our planet.

Firefighters are wonderful and incredibly courageous and reliable people. They should absolutely be adequately funded. But for firefighters and other emergency responders, the best thing we can do for them--besides funding them adequately--is to try to prevent the ever-increasing catastrophes for which global warming is responsible.

NASA has warned us, time and again--on the basis of scientific fact--that these ecological catastrophes are going to get worse, and are going to get worse fast. It's time that we adequately funded NASA to continue their vitally important work! And the REASONS they are NOT adequately funded are, a) ignorance, and b) rightwing/fascist control of Congress and other offices, rightwing/fascist propaganda in the corporate media and truly evil corporations such as Exxon Mobil and BP!

To bring up firefighters and their funding needs in this context, and to artificially oppose that to funding for NASA, is to play the divisive corporate 'news' game. These two groups--firefighters and other emergency responders, and NASA scientists and engineers--are NOT opposed to one another. They are engaged in one and the same effort--to save our asses from catastrophe, whether it's fire prevention or fighting fires, or trying to understand our global climate crisis which is creating severe drought, fires, floods and other huge impacts.
