Trump administration plans to break up NCAR. Stated reason: "It's a center for climate alarmism" and "studying offshore wind turbines". But later in the article they suggest its retribution for CO gov not releasing Tina Peters

I’m not a confrontational person but if I saw him in person, I would absolutely tell him to go fuck himself.

Tweet from Russ Vought:

The National Science Foundation will be breaking up the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado. This facility is one of the largest sources of climate alarmism in the country. A comprehensive review is underway & any vital activities such as weather research will be moved to another entity or location. 👇

Included is a link to a USA today story about the regime’s plan to dismantle NCAR.

Katharine Hayhoe @katharinehayhoe.com · 9d

NCAR is quite literally our global mothership.

Everyone who works in climate and weather has passed through its doors and benefited from its incredible resources.

Dismantling NCAR is like taking a sledgehammer to the keystone holding up our scientific understanding of the planet.

Unbelievable.

Please, watch Kimmel first, then end with Seth Meyers' eulogy to Reiner. Kimmel's right, but this murder shouldn't be tied to jokes about Trump. Seth honors Reiner and gets Trump's smallness and meanness across without pretending any of this is funny

I'm not going to AGU but this is a good reason not to. Decades ago, AGU stopped using NO for Ocean Sciences to protest David Duke. Here it's the Feds, not Louisiana, that's the problem, but you want Red states to check the Feds out of self-interest

@agu.org is in a tricky situation with the federal paramilitaries in New Orleans — they can’t make security promises if they aren’t sure they can keep them, and if the state-run convention authority is telling them they can’t bar warrantless agents, they can’t promise to do so.

I hate RFK Jr too, and am glad that Ms Schlossberg included his callous damage in her article. But it shouldn't overwhelm the main message from an excellent young writer facing a terminal diagnosis. Everyone should read the full essay, especially the empathy-impaired

I didn't have my glasses on and didn't see how little water I put in the kettle

Laurie Padman @lpadman.bsky.social · Nov 22

The posted excerpt is powerful. But read the article in full: so many people are in this situation and you need a fine writer to tell us how they see themselves as a first step to knowing how to best communicate with them.

Specially designed bricks that provide safe nesting spaces for swifts are being installed on properties around Shirebrook Valley as part of a council-funded environmental scheme.

Sheffield charity given grant to fit 'swift bricks' in homes

The Sheffield Swift Network was given £7,000 by the council for a project to help the birds nest.

Read about WHY Ketanji Brown Jackson stayed the SNAP order. Her move is probably the best solution for getting SNAP benefits approved quickly. open.substack.com/pub/stevevla...

190. SNAP WTF?

A very quick explainer on what (and why) Justice Jackson issued an "administrative stay" in the SNAP case late on Friday night, and on what's likely to happen next

No matter what good things they’ve done in their lives, every Republican member of congress should be judge by how they continue to put Trump over their country.
