Trump Administration Cuts Funding and Staff for Flagship Climate Report

The National Climate Assessment sites all went dark today after the Trump administration announced in April that it would allow the main contract supporting the report to expire.

With no backup plan for hosting the reports elsewhere, it appears they have just been allowed to disappear.

About last night Dr @chadmbriggs.bsky.social!!!

Why Did New Zealand Turn on Jacinda Ardern? A new memoir by the former Prime Minister revisits her time in office but doesn’t explain the confounding transformation the country underwent during COVID.

The world can be so severe to women who lead with empathy and make mistakes; yet, so tolerating to angry men (who, by the way, are throwing missiles to one another’s countries and facilitating genocide). Seriously, is this the world we want to live in? www.newyorker.com/books/page-t...

WHO comments on United States announcement of intent to withdraw The World Health Organization regrets the announcement that the United States of America intends to withdraw from the Organization. WHO plays a crucial role in protecting the health and security of the world’s people, including Americans, by addressing the root causes of disease, building stronger health systems, and detecting, preventing and responding to health emergencies, including disease outbreaks, often in dangerous places where others cannot go. The United States was a founding member of WHO in 1948 and has participated in shaping and governing WHO’s work ever since, alongside 193 other Member States, including through its active participation in the World Health Assembly and Executive Board. For over seven decades, WHO and the USA have saved countless lives and protected Americans and all people from health threats. Together, we ended smallpox, and together we have brought polio to the brink of eradication. American institutions have contributed to and benefited from membership in WHO. With the participation of the United States and other Member States, WHO has over the past 7 years implemented the largest set of reforms in its history, to transform our accountability, cost-effectiveness, and impact in countries. This work continues. We hope the United States will reconsider and we look forward to engaging in constructive dialogue to maintain the partnership between the USA and WHO, for the benefit of the health and well-being of millions of people around the globe.

How Labor Can Fight Back Against Trump’s Mass Deportation Agenda This is a frightening time for immigrant workers. President-elect Donald Trump ran on the slogan “mass deportations now,” and has appointed a team of anti-immigrant hardliners. The leadership of the D...

Trump's mass deportation agenda is a direct attack on all workers! ✊

We must unite to resist policies that threaten communities and labor rights.

We’ll organize, strike, and shut it down until all workers are respected, protected, and paid! seiu.co/4je56p8

Opinion | Why We Got It So Wrong It turns out a lot of people don’t behave like ambassadors from this or that group. They think for themselves in unexpected ways.

“Seeing groups in all their complexity requires seeing individuals in all their complexity… When you’re able to see people at all three levels of reality, you’re beginning to see them holistically.”

👇🏽 Such a powerful watch, led by a woman, no less! 👏 Wondering whether the Philippines can ever see such a sight from our indigenous people and communities. Their rights have been trampled upon in our country for many, many years! #maori #haka

COP29: UN climate talks 'no longer fit for purpose' say experts - BBC News Call for change comes after host country Azerbaijan's president calls oil and gas a "gift of God".

Great to see some honesty surfacing at last… As I’ve been saying for the last three years, the #CoP process is not fit for purpose. Moreover, I’d add that it’s really hard to see any way back for it now. The (corruption and) failure appear systemic.

The nature cure: how time outdoors transforms our memory, imagination and logic Without engaging with natural environments, our brains cease to work well. As the new field of environmental neuroscience proves, exposure to nature isn’t a luxury – it’s a necessity

Typhoon #PepitoPH buzzsaws its way toward landfall over the Philippines 🇵🇭🌀

And we’re now on our sixth in less than a month! We’re now at #ManYi #Pepito and it’s nearing Super Typhoon status, and it’s path will cross some of the areas that Typhoon #Haiyan hit back in 2013.

#Humanitarian workers in the #Philippines exhausted 😩

Finally decided to delete my Twitter/X account to get rid of some of the “cringe” as Gen Zs would say.

Had the best recommendations on environmental and climate starter packs (thanks so much @chadmbriggs.bsky.social)!

Now off to find my favorite feminists and convince other people to move here! 😉
