Last spring, National Geographic disappeared its own documentary featuring a queer woman ice core scientist. No explanation was given. They have since claimed "something came to light." My colleagues and I very skeptical. Gratitude to @evaholland.bsky.social and @defector.com for this story.

Conservationists + Catron County (NM) residents are calling out a plan by the Catron County Board of County Commissioners to declare a “state of emergency” due to wolves in the County. However, there is no incident in recorded history of a Mexican wolf attacking or injuring a human.

My second climate article is now out! In this article I look to add context to where the current climate change movement stands in relation to past environmental movements and why advocacy is essential for creating institutional change. Let me know what you think! www.linkedin.com/pulse/topic-...

On the Topic of Progress: A Brief History of Climate Advocacy and Climate Policy in the U.S.
As I see it, progress occurs in two ways: societal and institutional change. Societal change is simply the shifting of ideas within a population.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Check out this piece on the Hazard Services Branch at NOAA GSL. I had the pleasure of working with Emily and Taylor (in article) and the rest of the HS crew the last few years. This article is a perfect example explaining how our expert civil servant scientists are literally working to save lives.

As a cadet one of our summer trainings was named in her honor “Task Force Perez” That summer we learned about her exemplary leadership as a cadet and officer. Any attempt to erase her story or impact is a disgrace to values of Duty, Honor, Country for which she made the ultimate sacrifice.

NOAA does a lot more than weather forecasting. Here's the list of line offices. Its value extends to so many different sectors that the public would be shocked to realize the volume of decisions made based on what NOAA provides. This is an agency where the "trickle down" theory legitimately occurs.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Originally introduced in 2018 to congress, and reintroduced on Jan 31, 2025, the attempted termination of the U.S. Dept of Education. I would recommend scientists & educators share this one and bombard your representatives to make sure it doesn’t make it anywhere. 🧪

ICE complaining about ACLU’s “Know Your Rights” education means it’s working. Everyone in the USA has due process rights. Keep sharing those ACLU red cards which list Constitutional rights. ICE: get a warrant. A REAL warrant signed by a judge #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
