The #Trump admin said it was breaking up one of the world’s preeminent #earth & #atmospheric #research institutions over concerns about “#climate alarmism”—a move Democratic ofcls & scientists called an assault on #science & #education.
“The National Science Foundation will be breaking up the National Center for Atmospheric Research (#NCAR)…,” posted #OMB dir #RussVought. “This facility is one of the largest sources of climate alarmism in the country.”#disinformation https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/12/16/trump-dismantle-national-center-atmospheric-research-climate/87798771007/

The #NCAR laboratory in Boulder was founded in 1960 at the base of the Rocky Mountains to conduct #research & educate future scientists. Its resources include #supercomputers, valuable datasets & high-tech research planes.
Its dismantling would be a major loss for scientific research, said Kevin Trenberth, a distinguished scholar at NCAR & an honorary academic in physics at the University of Auckland in New Zealand.#Trump #ClimateDenial #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #science #conservation

Trenberth, who joined #NCAR in 1984 & officially retired in 2020, said the #research center is key to advanced #climate #science discoveries as well as in informing the climate models that produce the #weather forecasts we see on the nightly news.
#Colorado Gov #JaredPolis (D) said in a statement that the state had not received information about the #Trump admin’s intentions to dismantle NCAR.

@Nonilex Everyone and everything that stands in the way of fossil fuel corporate profits is being dismantled and/or destroyed.

“If true, public safety is at risk & #science is being attacked,” said Polis. “#ClimateChange is real, but the work of NCAR goes far beyond #climate science. NCAR delivers data around severe #weather events like #fires & #floods that help our country save lives & property, & prevent devastation for families.”#Trump #ClimateDenial #ClimateCrisis #PublicHealth #wildlife #plantlife #ecosystems #science #conservation

@Nonilex I bet you money it is a double whammy. Someone already positioned themselves to buy that I.M. PEI building and turn it into a luxury hotel.
