NOAA Deputy Administrator Dr. James Mahoney testified before the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee on January 8, 2003 on Climate Change: Greenhouse Gas Reductions and Trading Systems.
Excerpt:
... Mahoney noted that the workshop and strategic plan directly respond to President Bush's call that the best scientific information be developed to assist the United States in developing a well-reasoned approach to climate change issues. "If we fail to fully evaluate the scientific information bearing on global change, we would be subject to the justifiable criticism that our strategy to cope with potentially our largest-ever investment in environmental management would be seen as a 'ready-fire-aim' approach."
