   1) NASA, its true, has played a critical role. But credits for the Earth   
   observation campaigns is disappearing. Space.com reported in February:   
      
   In the Trump administration's federal budget request for 2021, proposes   
   the cancellation of two NASA telescopes, two Earth science satellites   
   and STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) engagement   
   efforts.   
      
   2) I have a feeling of desperation after all this years of warning   
   people, of trying by all my very limoited means, to stop this crazy   
   attitude of denial to see that it will be much worst than the direst   
   warnings I made 10 years ago. We are experiencing the temperatures that   
   were supposed to happen in 2100 if nothing was done. And now the whole   
   world is starting to burn, from Australia to the Amazon, the U.S.   
   Siberia, forest fires are accelerating global warming by spewing tons   
   and tons of CO2 to the atmosphere.   
      
   And we go on and nothing changes. Yes, this is (maybe) off topic. The   
   planet is off topic.
