America is dead to me!!!
This!!!
60 yrs ago today (Nov 5, 1965), the 1st US government report to warn about climate change was published.
"Restoring the Quality of Our Environment" included warning of C02 build-up and sea-level rise/melting ice-caps.

I've started a substack newsletter. If you've liked my podcast or media articles, you might like this too. In the short term, mostly about my late uncle, artist Sumner Crane. But eventually, climate, life, politics etc. First post is just saying hi, real content soon. substack.com/home/post/p-...

I was surprised when working on this story about global warming's role in this heat wave to find scientists concerned that our models are underestimating future extreme heat severity, frequency and duration. (1/2)

Fun* trivia for you:
A colleague in the House tells me that the "Supporting the Health of Aquatic systems through Research, Knowledge, and Enhanced Dialogue (SHARKED) Act" is the first US bill whose back-ronym was generated using ChatGPT.

The videos coming out of the Gestapo terror raid in Los Angeles today are absolutely horrifying and really should wake you up to the new reality of American fascism. It’s here it’s coming for us all and unless we fight for one another we will not survive.

So happy for my Maine-eDNA colleagues on their Science paper (& *cover*!).
I know we’re not supposed to big-up the big 3, but the fact is these early-career researchers still exist in a system where the big 3 matter, so I’m happy for their success.

Great news! I'm told a few moments ago US Institute of Peace Board Chair Amb. George Moose went to the USIP building where he and legal counsel were able to retake possession after the recent court decision. They were accompanied by a small team securing the building and assessing maintenance needs.

This is an absolute disaster. If we don't stop this, they will turn NSF into a pawn of the Trump administration. There will be no research on climate, biodiversity, or anything that isn't eugenics or AI or how to more efficiently destroy the planet for profit.
This cannot be allowed to happen.

Great interview. The most important takeaway imho is that it’s harder to restore rights we lose than to defend rights we have. That’s why we fight now, not wait until later. It’s why we can’t indulge magical thinking about polls that make citizens rescue Senators. youtu.be/yWpedkNHo3E
