I am so angry today seeing the devastating cuts to my colleagues research funding and their grief at having to give notice to their research teams. Especially upset about cuts to indigenous resilience, flood risk and agrivoltaics work that has so much economic and risk reduction potential :(

Congratulations Svitlana Krakovska! (you can find her on FB)
She is honored for research and her leadership in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change IPCC), and I am particularly admiring of her courage in speaking out on the role of fossil fuels in causing conflict and her support for science in Ukraine.

At the US National Academy of Sciences meeting this morning, Ukrainian climate scientist, Svitlana Krakovska was elected as an international member. Election to membership in the US NAS recognizes excellence in research and is one of the highest honors a scientist can achieve.

Standing up for Science at the University of Arizona including social science and indigenous science
Just called all my reps to express my shock and embarrassment at the way the President and VP behaved with the Ukrainian President today. Their bullying is unacceptable and a violation of diplomacy
And of course the publications of US scientists will be cited in IPCC reports so we must keep writing!
Oh and US scientists may be nominated to IPCC by international orgs like ISC I think or by IPCC bureaus?
I assume that US scientists may need to fund their own attendance at any in person IPCC meetings as usgcrp may not do so. But I am sure those selected will make every effort to do so.

‘Flow’ is a stunning animated film about animals working together to overcome adversity. No dialog, amazing landscapes..I found it very moving. Hope it gets Oscar.
I appear to be on editorial advisory board although I asked to step down several years ago! Will try to resign. Again. But also mention issue to a couple of assoc editors
I am so sad. She and I were grad students together at UCLA and then shared a house in Boulder for a year when we worked with Steve Schneider.She was brilliant and hilarious with her dry sense of humor. I will miss her and her work.
Take a break from doom scrolling and look at this adorable dog who got given some tennis balls….
