As of today, all current NOAA Climate and Global Change postdoctoral fellows have been furloughed due to the Dept of Commerce not releasing the funding for the program. In addition no new Fellows were awarded this year. cpaess.ucar.edu/cgc

The plan follows through on Project 2025, which called to radically shrink the agency’s research arm.

Dear NOAA: Thank You
To my fellow NOAA employees—especially those of you who are departing in 2025—thank you! When I look back on my childhood dream and see how much of it came true and even surpassed what I dreamed of—it brings tears to my eyes. I owe so much of it to you. Your initiative, exploration, and discovery. Thank you for your service and Godspeed wherever life takes you.

Please call your reps. This is way beyond any debate about action on climate - rather, this would blind our nation so that we don't even know or understand what is happening in our atmosphere and oceans.
