Alaska's Western Arctic is one of the largest, most biodiverse tracts of public land in the United States.

Yet the Trump admin. just greenlit a plan to destroy it with bulldozers and 95,000-pound "thumper trucks."

The Center and allies sued to stop it.

Rare “Particularly Dangerous Situation” alert issued by NWS Boulder, CO for Friday in the Foothills for gusts up to 100 mph!! It’s due to a strong “downslope” wind. Air accelerates downhill and also drys out, making for damaging gusts and potentially rapid fire spread.

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.

Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.
