Reposted by houston climate houserDr. Samantha Montano @samlmontano.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Stop letting people in this administration say they want to make changes to FEMA because it will save money/minimize disaster spending. This is not true. One thing we are very sure about in disaster research is that investing in mitigation & preparedness saves us major money in response & recovery. 19823204

Reposted by houston climate houserJim Whittington🔥 @jimwhittington.bsky.social · 06/03/2025This is a good article that does a nice job of explaining what local dispatch centers do. It's unfortunate that it had to be written under these circumstances. There's a lot of specialized equipment and tech in dispatch centers that are not easily moved or replaced. 1/ 33819
