The Guardian UK is reporting that James Hansen, self-professed leading climate scientists is going to speak before congress.

Outspoken NASA climatologist and IPCC author Jim Hansen gives an update on global warming, tipping points and the massive extinctions that could result.

New satellite observations show that sea ice in the Arctic is melting faster while air temperatures in the region are rising sharply, scientists say.

AP Science writer Seth Borenstein recently asked NASA why they were letting a $200 million climate satellite sit in a box when it could be recording invaluable data on the earth's climate. The answer NASA gave is very suspicious given the insider information recently revealed.

Paleoclimatologist Dr. Allegra LeGrande studies ancient climate patterns, applies them to our present, to help predict what our future might be. One of the few female scientists in her field, she hails from a fourth-generation Texas oil family, and works through a collaboration of Columbia University and the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies.

Space agencies including NASA have agreed to use their next generation of satellites to help monitor climate change, the United Nations weather agency said.

Clouds on the outer edge of the Earth’s atmosphere in space are operating as an “exquisite” temperature gauge monitoring climate change.

Scientists say that this summer’s accelerated Arctic ice melt could be a sign that global warming has passed the tipping point

The top climate scientist at NASA says the Bush administration has tried to stop him from speaking out since he gave a lecture last month calling for prompt reductions in emissions of greenhouse gases linked to global warming.

Who knows more about global warming? The top climate scientist at Nasa? Or that tool, the worst president EVER, GW Bush?

A new animation from NASA shows that Arctic sea ice loss over the past 28 years has been enormous... with potentially devastating consequences for the larger global environment.

Somewhere in Maryland is a metal box containing a fully completed climate spacecraft that could save the world.
NASA’s Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) cost over $100 million and was designed to measure the energy budget of our warming planet. Yet the spacecraft has remained in its box for the last five years and it looks like it is not going anywhere anytime soon.

NASA quietly canceled the project altogether in January 2006 citing “competing priorities”.

Despite NASA's recent minor correction to US temperature data 1998 remains the hottest year on record, followed by 2006 according to the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) who is the officially mandated with keeping such records.

In a shocking abuse of politics over science, NASA has mothballed the most significant climate monitoring project of the decade. This story exposes the details of this abuse of power and the launch of a muckraking investigation into this scandal.

NASA employees tested the BMW Hydrogen 7 luxury automobile for 8-weeks, which runs off the same fuel as the Space Shuttle, before the successful launch of the Endeavour on Wednesday.
