[QUOTE="essentialsaltes, post: 75460886, member: 294566"] [I]An early sign of the shift came last month, when Erik Noble, a former White House policy adviser who had just been appointed NOAA’s chief of staff, [URL='https://news.yahoo.com/election-nears-trump-makes-final-121557839.html?utm_source=fark&utm_medium=website&utm_content=link&ICID=ref_fark']removed Craig McLean, the agency’s acting chief scientist.[/URL] McLean had sent some of the new political appointees a message that asked them to acknowledge the agency’s scientific integrity policy, which prohibits manipulating research or presenting ideologically driven findings. The request prompted a sharp response from Noble. “Respectfully, by what authority are you sending this to me?” he wrote, according to a person who received a copy of the exchange after it was circulated within NOAA. McLean answered that his role as acting chief scientist made him responsible for ensuring that the agency’s rules on scientific integrity were followed. The following morning, Noble responded. “You no longer serve as the acting chief scientist for NOAA,” he informed McLean, adding that a new chief scientist had already been appointed. “Thank you for your service.”[/I] [/QUOTE]
