The first goal is usually to privatize it.

They crossed the line into meteorological malpractice when they started shutting down monitoring satellites.

It's all a part of Trump's war against anyone who knows more than he does, which is nearly everyone, including those doing science.

People don't really know what NCAR does, so a lot don't care. I've worked with them in the past and it's truly world class. These are the kind of hollowing out that we'll notice in spades within the next 1, 5, 10 years. MAGA is stripping out every good thing about our advanced society, to profit as much as possible, and then they'll be dead before the bill comes due and society collapses.

They need to face justice for what they've done to the country and the world. I can only hope to see certain news.

Yes we can remove parts of your car that so called "mechanics" have lied to you about as you don't need them for your car to work.

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
