Symposia at #ESA2025 take deep dives into important themes -- research, practice, collaboration and more -- that can enhance anyone's experience at the event. Check out the lineup and start planning your agenda for Baltimore! esa.org/baltimore202...

Have you seen the full schedule of short courses scheduled for #ESA2025? These are phenomenal opportunities to dive into subject matter that can improve your work as a scientist -- and you might not find them anywhere else. events.rdmobile.com/Sessions/Ind...

The cancellation of this critically important program will increase vulnerability of communities to extreme heat, just as heat season ramps up in the US. @laddkeith.com

As US doubles down on fossil fuels, communities will have to adapt to the consequences βˆ’ yet climate adaptation funding is on the chopping block The administration wants to cut funding for programs that help communities adapt to wildfire risk, sea-level rise and invasive species, among many other risks.

The administration is taking aim at the science needed to help Americans adapt to climate change, even as it pushes fossil fuels.

I joined two of my fellow regional directors of USGS Climate Adaptation Science Centers, which face imminent elimination, to highlight the value of adaptation science.

Funding for National Climate Assessment Is Cut The move raises concerns among scientists that the assessment, which is required by Congress, is now in jeopardy.

Trump’s Science Cuts Have Thrown the Research World Into Chaos Firing federal workers and freezing grants are upending a world-class system the US has built since World War II.

This story starts connecting the dots between the many ways the Trump admin's moves are *already* disrupting science + research nationwide, from climate to health to econ depts.

Higher ed must resist authoritarian rule. It's the mission. Trying to make your institution a smaller target isn’t going to work.
