This from the fish wrap,
DES MOINES, Iowa — The U.S. Department of Agriculture will award $6 million to 10 universities to finance the study of what climate change means to agriculture and strategies for helping farmers and ranchers deal with weather changes.
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced the grants Tuesday during a conference about climate change held at Drake University in Des Moines.
Vilsack told the audience the grants would lead to information and developments that would be essential to farmers.
The grants will go to the University of Colorado, Cornell University, Florida International University, Iowa State University, Michigan State University, the University of Minnesota, Montana State University, Oklahoma State University, Pennsylvania State University and West Virginia University.

Would it not be better just to ask the farmers that are getting a subsidy about it and publish? You want answers, go to the ones that deal with it every day.

How about more high-density feedlot action near rivers and sink holes? Let's subsidize that. Because there's money to be made in bottled clean water, when there's none to be found in the water table. Money money money. That's what makes the world go 'round. All other concerns are secondary. Screw the environmentalists' concerns. They're a bunch of wussies.
Did I miss anything?

MADDOG, according to the article you linked to, Obama has shut down pipelines and deep sea oil drilling. He hasn't shut down any pipeline. And there are more drills in the Gulf of Mexico than there were before the Horizon spill. Meanwhile sealife in the gulf is still dying in record numbers from the spill, and no measures have been taken for a better response in case of another big spill.
