tl,dr; Scientists no longer allowed to use federal funding to publish, attend meetings, or talk to the public. They cannot collaborate internationally. Grants can be cancelled for any reason, at any time, political appointees have a final say over what gets funded, and who gets funded.

This week the government quietly published a 'Global biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse and national security assessment': www.gov.uk/government/p... Meant to be out last year, but rumoured to be blocked by Number 10: www.theguardian.com/environment/... The judgements are stomach-churning

Although it makes grim reading “If current rates of biodiversity loss continue, every critical ecosystem is on a pathway to collapse.” it’s good to see biodiversity loss being considered as the threat to our national security which it is. Response requires understanding 🧪 www.gov.uk/government/p...

Nature security assessment on global biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse and national security
This strategic assessment explores how global biodiversity loss and the collapse of critical ecosystems could affect the UK’s resilience, security and prosperity.
