Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.
Exclusive: The Trump administration is moving to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, according to a senior White House official, taking aim at one of the world's leading climate research labs.

NEW: Without USAID funding to help buy food for refugees, the World Food Program rushed to prioritize families based on need, determining that only half the population would get food.
Refugees learned which half they were in from a number stamped on the back of their ration card.

The core principle of fascism resides not within its ideology but within its deliberate actions to show that there’s no limits to what atrocities may be done to a vulnerable individual or group of individuals to demonstrate absolute superiority.

We are not just arrogant & narcissistic supremacists, we are delusional and deny how life works. When we deny how life works, we can't be true to our own nature. When we are not true to our own nature, when we deny our place and who we are, we harm our own life before death.

At the end of each year, FDA releases data on antibiotics sold for use in livestock.
It usually changes a few %. This year, it went up 15.8%.
I was shocked & emailed experts/industry groups. Likeliest explanation per a source: industry is not "being good stewards of antibiotics"

Is it better to go vegan or stop flying?
It’s commonly quoted that animal agriculture produces more CO2 than aviation, therefore giving up meat would have more impact than giving up flying. We look at the numbers behind the claims.
