FACTCHECK: We asked dozens of scientists to review Trump's climate report, being used to justify major policy rollbacks.

They found "more than 100" false or misleading claims.

NEW: i spoke to nine (!) scientists across several disciplines whose work was cited in the new Department of Energy report that downplays the severity of climate change. all of them say their work was misrepresented, cherry picked, and/or lacked context —
Scientists Say New Government Climate Report Twists Their Work
A new Department of Energy report “fundamentally misrepresents” climate research and leaves out key context, multiple scientists cited in the report tell WIRED.

The Senate Approps Committee approved the "CJS" budget bill yesterday that would provide funding for NOAA, NASA and NSF. I did a semi-deep dive this morning, and talked about how the administration seems to be saying "whatever" to Congress re: the budget. More here:

The Senate just posted the report language of its FY26 science appropriations bill. This text lays out what they want done and carries the force of law if it is included in the final spending bill.

It's a line-by-line refutation of Trump's proposed budget for NASA and NOAA.

Big up to @rdzombak.bsky.social for bringing eyes to this story. 🧪

So many people beyond my little cohort of fellows are impacted by slowdowns at NOAA. America is rapidly losing footing as a leader in climate science and we all are paying the cost.

I hope a journalist on the climate beat will report on this - this may be only one piece of the general awfulness that is happening to federal science, but the NOAA Climate and Global Change Fellowship has trained many of the current leaders in weather and climate: cpaess.ucar.edu/cgc/current-...

This story is also far more straightforward and solid about who gave warnings and who didn't. "...most cellphone alerts were coming from the National Weather Service’s Austin/San Antonio station. But some alerts about life-threatening flooding didn’t come until the predawn hours..."
Texas Hill Country is no stranger to flash floods. Why were so many caught off guard?
When the precipitation intensified in the early morning hours Friday, many people failed to receive or respond to flood warnings at riverside campsites known to be in the floodplain.

This short video by @weatherwest.bsky.social provides a clear explanation of the meteorological factors contributing to this heartbreaking disaster and how climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of heavy rain.

As always, this is not to blame the victims! Quite the opposite; this truly was a sudden & massive event and occurred at worst possible time (middle of the night). But problem, once again, was not a bad weather prediction: it was one of "last mile" forecast/warning dissemination.
