Thank you AGU for the courage to report on this.

Join us Tuesday January 20th for our next Geography Colloquium with Marc Tadaki (Lincoln U, NZ) and Jane Kitson (scientist, NZ) as they discuss their latest research on Environmental Justice and the Indigenous Governance of Introduced Species.

Excellent science communication about why this tragedy occurred. Another solution is to protect people by limiting establishment and activities in these vulnerable zones.

Trump’s Proposed Budget Would Cut a Major Ecology Program

USGS’s Ecosystems Mission Area faces elimination, threatening salmon, bat, and wildlife research. Cuts align with Project 2025’s rollback of environmental protections. A generational setback for science. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/31/c...

Medical Research Funding — Unbreaking How the administration is breaking the government, and what that means for all of us.

I urge everyone to read Unbreaking’s new page on everything the govt is doing to destroy & diminish medical research funding.

It’s the best thing I’ve read on this topic: @lizneeley.bsky.social & co have such done an incredible job.

The Weather & Climate Livestream Join us starting May 28th, as meteorologists and climate scientists from across the US share their research and answer your questions.

Hi friends - In the face of unprecedented cuts to the basic research science funding, climate scientists are staging an 100-hour live stream of why science matters. There will be many talks on all sorts of things (I'm Saturday at 12:30 PT). Please share widely! wcstreamathon.netlify.app. 🌊🧪

Journal editors struggling to find reviewers — there are some bloody good reasons why I used to think it was merely a post-COVID19 hiccough, but the extensive delays in receiving reviews for submitted manuscripts that I am seeing near constantly now are the symptoms of a much larger problem. That problem is, in a nutshell, how awfully journals are treating both authors and reviewers these days. I regularly hear stories from editors handling my papers, as well as accounts from colleagues, about the ridiculous number of review requests they send with no response.

I used to think it was merely a post-COVID19 hiccough, but the extensive delays in receiving reviews for submitted manuscripts that I am seeing near constantly now are the symptoms of a much larger problem. That…

Powerful graphic. In a single day on April 25, a DOGE-fueled NSF canceled 340,226 future days of research.

Or 932 years.

[And that’s just one of three rounds of terminations so far.]

As Trump demolishes and derides 🧪 science, France is intensifying its appeal to researchers to move to the nation that gave the USA the Statue of Liberty. Macron will lay out details Monday. See link below. Here's my variant on Emma Lazarus's poem: 🧵

The Trump Administration Has Canceled Millions in NSF Grants Projects related to diversity, equity, and inclusion and misinformation and disinformation were cut “to protect the interests of the government,” the agency said.

“We’re seeing the manipulation of the system, where now politicians are deciding where the money should go or what science is and is not, rather than the scientists themselves.” @mzahneis.bsky.social reports on the millions in canceled NSF grants: www.chronicle.com/article/the-...

On it.

Report your terminated NSF grant here:

And spread the word. We'll have a database up once we build out the back end and receive submissions.

All credit to @noamross.net for standing this up so quickly.

Many data sets held by NOAA are being "retired" in may, including datasets relevant to ocean sciences and climate. If you have need for these data, or are an archivist, it would be good to download this now. PLEASE SHARE WIDELY. www.nesdis.noaa.gov/about/docume...

She Predicted It All 10 Years Ago!! The Last American Road Trip, Sarah Kendzior YouTube video by The Mark Thompson Show

This is a jam-packed interview where I got to sum up my main points nice and quick. Great questions from the interviewer. If you want the capsule view, this is the interview to watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2l4...

Trump Administration Has Begun a War on Science, Researchers Say Nearly 2,000 scientists urged that Congress restore funding to federal agencies decimated by recent cuts.

Some 1,900 leading researchers accused the Trump administration in an open letter on Monday of conducting a “wholesale assault on U.S. science” that could set back research by decades and that threatens the health and safety of Americans.

Quelle époque...😢

It’s all incredibly shocking. The COI is unbelievable. How can this happen?

Some people LOVE to tell me that scientists have lost public trust because we were wrong about something, we communicated badly, we swore or cried or acted fallibly human, or whatever.

That’s bullshit. Scientists lost public trust because disinformation campaigns like this stole it & eradicated it.

Canada election live: Canadian PM Mark Carney calls snap election Carney has asked the governor general to dissolve Parliament, launching an election campaign amid a trade war with the US.

The election has just been called for April 28.

If you are a Canadian living outside the country, get your mail-in ballot here ASAP:

Devastating for US environmental science. How can this happen? Too far all of this assault on science, health and the environment.

This is simply appalling… so sorry.

9% of Canadian citizens live overseas. I vote religiously (except those years Harper took it away...) and you can too! With so many of us scattered around we need to make our international voices heard.

Thousands gather across U.S. in Stand Up for Science events Scientists rally across the country in response to layoffs and funding cuts ordered by the Trump administration

Breaking news: Thousands of researchers and their supporters, including recently fired federal workers, have gathered across the U.S. in response to layoffs and funding cuts ordered by the Trump administration. scim.ag/41zlPv4

French University to Fund American Scientists Who Fear Trump Censorship The program, called ‘safe place for science,’ offers American scientists funding to continue their research in France.

Aix-Marseille University in France will provide 15 million Euros over 3 years to 15 American scientists who feel threatened or hindered in their research by the orange manbaby.

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?
