Last one for Tax Day – NOAA 🌊

The average U.S. taxpayer contributes $21/year to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

💡 NOAA turns science into safety — for coasts, communities, & the climate. It helps safeguard lives, property, and ecosystems from rising seas and extreme weather.
A powerful ocean scene shows waves crashing against a row of buildings under a dark, stormy sky. Overlaid in bold white text: “How much would you pay to protect your coast?” A square graphic with an aerial view of swirling ocean currents in teal and blue. Bold white text reads: “Only $21/year from the average taxpayer helps fund NOAA.” A square infographic with a dark stormy ocean background. The white header text reads: “Your $21 funds these essential services.” Below are six dark blue boxes, each with a white icon and label: 1. Coastal Mapping – Detailed charts of shorelines, navigation hazards, and more 2. Weather Monitoring – Vital data for tracking storms, extreme heat, and drought 3. Marine Resource Management – Conservation of ocean life and sustainable fisheries 4. Coastal Resilience – Infrastructure that withstands storms and rising seas 5. Storm Research – Studies of severe weather patterns and impacts The graphic uses clean lines, oceanic tones, and emphasizes the small taxpayer cost for these vital environmental services.
