Steve Cole, a NASA spokesperson, told the Capital Weather Gang the change in the administration has not altered how the agency communicates science. In a November interview with the New York Times, he would only concede there may be “some connectivity” between human activity and climate change. NASA appears unfazed by the political winds swirling around the climate change issue.
