The Trump attack on US National Center for Atmospheric Research @ncar-ucar.bsky.social is an attack on human intelligence. If Trump persists it will soon discover that weather and climate share exactly the same physical laws. Shutting off NCAR would hurt the US economy and security #AttackOnScience
Threatening NCAR, Trump administration seeks to extinguish a beacon of climate science (by Ben Santer) thebulletin.org/?p=128171 via @BulletinAtomic #AttackOnScience
RFK Jr. speaks in authoritarian gobbledygook where every pair of words is like matter and antimatter—poof, gone on contact. “Don’t trust scientists about science”? His sentences self-annihilate before they even land. @rpsagainsttrump.bsky.social #attackonscience #attackontruth #attackondemocracy

Just the first #TheThreeBodyProblem book. Suddenly the #Trump administrations #AttackOnScience makes sense!
It is not just the #KeelingCurve but a whole network of stations and calibration labs that have been operated by #NOAA as a service for humanity for decades.
Shutting it down would be like destroying a piece of art like the #MonaLisa: irreplacable once it is gone. A nightmare! #AttackOnScience
Yesterday, I met @davidho.bsky.social at #EGU25. We briefly talked about the #attackonscience in the #US. The recent developments at #NSF are just devastating.
Yesterday's team building exercise started with considering survival/escape items on a deserted island and ended with everyone agreeing that we didn't want to leave. So... that's ten epidemiologists who prefer the conditions of Castaway to the US. #publichealth #braindrain #AttackOnScience

In US, MN ranks #1 in oats; #3 in spring wheat; #9 in barley. $380M in #wheat exports alone.
Scientists are needed to support farmers producing these crops!
What's the future of #agriculture if we dismantle #AgriculturalScience research?

Many people from the #USDA were terminated yesterday/today. A place where agricultural research is done to support agricultural production. Scientists, research assistants, custodians.
This is unacceptable.

Trump's team is apparently deleting scientific databases from the last 20 years. insideclimatenews.org/news/04022025/todays-cli... . #climate #science #attackonscience #STEM #research
