Les États-Unis font la guerre à la science du climat.

« C’est une tentative de mise en cause de la solidité scientifique du lien entre ce réchauffement et les émissions de gaz à effet de serre », dit @jpvanypersele.bsky.social ‬ ancien vice-président du GIEC

Donald Trump’s war on climate science has staggering implications
Even a policy of “drill, baby, drill” would imply more climate research, not its evisceration, says Ralph Keeling

Here’s the first page of our new article on the value of NOAA to the United States, which starts on page ~175~ of this free PDF book.

In the business, posting a full page of text with refs and footnotes as part of a giant PDF is called a ~teaser~

CHAPTER 13 Downsizing the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Valerie J. Karplus and Costa Samaras Carnegie Mellon University The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) plays a vital role in the United States' ability to anticipate and respond to short- and long-term threats to security, health, and resilience. NOAA is an agency within the Department of Commerce that tracks and predicts changes in weather, climate, coastal lands, and oceans, enabling actions that prevent damage to life and property. From avoiding deaths due to extreme weather, to averting collisions of objects in space, to informing decisions of farmers and fishers, NOAA offices constantly generate trusted, open information that has profound, tangible benefits for people and businesses. NOAA is facing the potential of losing more than 25% of its current $6 billion budget.' Without NOAA, the US economy will be no match for everyday events, and woefully unprepared for climate change. As one of the world's premier weather and climate change research agencies, NOAA provides data, tools, and information to help advance the scientific understanding of climate change and its impacts.? Essential weather data used widely across both the public and private sectors in the US originates with NOAA.' Helping the public and businesses understand how heat,* drought,' floods," sea level rise,' and other hazards are changing can allow communities to better prepare for climate change and manage impacts. However, risk from climate impacts is a combination of how hazards change, if people and infrastructure are in harm's way of these hazards, and how vulnerable these communities are to damages when extreme weather shows up. NOAA connects these concepts and serves as a critical climate resilience agency, enabling communities to assess climate risks and take action.® NOAA provides on-the-ground resources for communities to build up the local workforce and capacity
