NASA scientist Dr. Kate Marvel links ‘climate change’ to ‘white supremacy’ – ‘We’ll never head off climate catastrophe without dismantling white supremacy’ – Calls for climate & racial ‘justice’
Another NASA climate scientist has revealed their charged politics and waded into racially charged linkages between “climate justice” and “racial justice.” and “white supremacy.” NASA’s Dr. Kate Marvel declared on June 1: “Climate justice and racial justice are the same thing, and we’ll never head off climate catastrophe without dismantling white supremacy.” Marvel is an Associate Research Scientist at NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York City.
In 2018, Marvel (katherine.d.marvel@nasa.gov) replied “DAMN RIGHT” when she tweeted out a Newsweek article titled: “Science Should Be A Feminist Institution.”
According to a 2018 article at Think Progress, “Marvel said she admires what Ocasio-Cortez and the Sunrise Movement activists are doing with appeals to support a Green New Deal.” According to Marvel: “What I do admire about that is the fact they are using new language. It’s not just, ‘Look at the sad polar bear,” Marvel said. “This is not talking about climate change like it’s this isolated issue. It’s talking about it in the context of all these other things that people care about. And I think that’s absolutely the right way to look at it,” she said.

Marvel’s other NASA colleague, Climate scientist Peter Kalmus also made similar racial/climate comments this week.
NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab climate scientist Peter Kalmus: “Here’s why race justice and climate justice are one & the same: The oppressive extractive plutocracies that colonize and kill black bodies and colonize and kill our planet are one and the same.”
NASA climate scientists have a history of turning science into political activism. NASA climate scientist James Hansen, the former director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies was arrested multiple times protesting climate change, in making climate science a political issue.

Hansen is a hardcore activist who has been arrested multiple times protesting climate change.”

Hansen also endorsed extreme climate books.

Reaction to Marvel’s “white supremacy” comments was quick.
Climate skeptic Tom Nelson reacted to Marvel: “97% of warmist climate scientists are more interested in radical left-wing politics than in natural variability.”
Nelson added: “Question: Based on the opinions of people who say stuff like Marvel’s quote, is it wise to spend $93 trillion trying to prevent bad weather?”

NASA also had a policial controversy in 2010. See: NASA chief says agency’s goal is Muslim outreach, forgets to mention space – NASA chief CharlesBolden: “Perhaps foremost, [President] Obama wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math and engineering.”
A group of former NASA scientists and engineers has tried to bring NASA back to science.“The Right Climate Stuff,” which includes engineers and scientists from across generations who have taken part in NASA’s most high-profile missions dating back to Apollo. The group has produced its own “rigorous, earth surface temperature model using conservation-of-energy principles” that operates similarly to the way the surface and internal temperature of a spacecraft is analyzed, the Right Climate Stuff team explains on its website.
