"A high-profile case of alleged scientific censorship ended Friday when the National Park Service published a long-delayed report outlining how rising seas could damage parks across the country.
The report includes references to mankind's role in climate change — something federal officials had tried scrubbing from the study, according to documents released under a state open records request. The study had languished under administrative review since early 2017.
Although National Park Service officials say the report was handled properly, the study's lead author says the administrative review process has morphed from a "rubber stamp" into a tool for the government to suppress inconvenient science."
