‘DoorDash for Good’ Rescues 250 Million Pounds of Food from Becoming Waste

June 21 is Show Your Stripes Day—a time to spark conversation about how our world is warming.

This video shows how @noaa.gov temperature data for the U.S. is turned into the iconic stripes visualizations you may see shared today and tomorrow.

US Senate passes bill to boost federal science spending after White House sought major cuts The U.S. Senate voted on Thursday to approve billions of dollars in funding for federal science agencies, rejecting deep cuts proposed by President Donald Trump in space and other areas.

Wow! Yay! The Senate just rejected Trump’s proposed science cuts, voting 82–15 to boost funding for NOAA, NASA, and the NSF. The bill already passed the House 397–28. Strong bipartisan support for science still exists.

Silvopasture gains momentum in the Amazon, but can it shrink beef’s footprint? In the rolling hills of Iñapari, a remote town in the Peruvian Amazon on the tri-border with Bolivia and Brazil, cattle ranchers are ditching grass monocultures, which have been shown to harm biodiver...

Silvopasture is a highly recommended climate solution and it’s slowly gaining momentum in South America.

This NASA film from 2020, available on the NASA app, shows how satellites and NASA scientists can help fire fighters fight fires. youtu.be/kzrHRLUHVCM. FIRMS is the tool I use, along with windy, to see where fires are near us and friends during big events in the West.

Despite pandemic shutdowns, carbon dioxide and methane surged in 2020 - NOAA Research The global average carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere surged at the fifth-highest rate in NOAA's 63-year record during 2020. Preliminary estimates of the increase in methane levels indicate it may...

“CO2 levels are now comparable the Mid-Pliocene Warm Period (3.6 mya) when concentrations of carbon dioxide ranged from 380-450 parts per million. Sea level was 78 feet higher than today, average temperature was 7 degrees F higher than in pre-industrial times.”

Study: Over nearly half a billion years, Earth's temperature has changed drastically, driven by carbon dioxide Earth has been and can be warmer than it is today, but humans and animals can't adapt fast enough to keep up with climate change, a new study finds.

I would like to know how congress plans to stop the steal of our data. I am reminded of the server in the closet, which was distressing, but locking out employees and downloading our data? From the U.S. Treasury? Without security clearance? I called my senators, Rep, and bank today. You should too.
