Beaucoup (la plupart?) qui regardent Quotidien ne se rendent probablement pas compte de ce qui cloche. Et c'est ainsi que les discriminations s'entretiennent dans la société, aussi par les médias, dans ce cas justement au lieu d'informer.

It’s simply not possible to overstate how important NCAR is to US and world science. We need to fight this with everything we’ve got.
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.

NCAR is quite literally our global mothership.

Everyone who works in climate and weather has passed through its doors and benefited from its incredible resources.

Dismantling NCAR is like taking a sledgehammer to the keystone holding up our scientific understanding of the planet.

Unbelievable.

Sainte-Soline : « le résultat d’une stratégie délibérée de maintien de l’ordre »

This 150M cat bond for Jamaica has a trigger design that uses hurricane central pressure and location.

That data is being collected by NOAA Hurricane Hunters who are currently working without pay.

Mer de Glace yesterday from a little above Gare du Montenvers. The glacier lost about 200m of depth at this location because of climate change, and around 150m since 1990 only.

Wild to see #94L and #Humberto juxtaposed like this: much more Pacific-ish than Atlantic-ish.

Big forecast headaches loom, possibly for days to come, with #94L sandwiched between #Humberto + a cutoff low in the SE US. Unusual setups are tough for models.

😢 How are flights so much cheaper than trains?
Indeed, why are we forced to pick between cheap & polluting and expensive & sustainable?

Well @greenpeace.eu has the answer: subsidies and MASSIVE tax breaks.

Retailleau montre une fois de plus qu'il représente l'extrême droite propagandiste, liberticide, autoritaire, violente. Nos libertés et notre démocratie sont menacées. Emmanuel Macron en porte une grave responsabilité. Effrayant.
