Climate.gov, a major US government website supporting public education on climate science, will likely shut down after almost all of its staff were fired. What would be worse is if the website were co-opted to publish climate denial content.

ICE seemingly confirms they are using National Guard as security to conduct immigration raids. Let's call this what it is, militarized ethnic cleansing.

There’s a reason they can say things faster than the National Weather Service…it’s because they aren’t issuing official warnings and aren’t concerned about what their false alarm rate is…anybody can look at red and green coming together on the radar and call for a tornado…but is that accurate? No.

Being undocumented is NOT a criminal offense. Yet DHS are hunting down farm workers like they’re criminals. Using our Federal dollars. Why are farm owners allowing these depraved actions without demanding court issued warrants? Why aren’t they protecting their workers? Name THEM #UnmaskICE #LaMigra

“Currently, of the 9,000,000 acres of national forests in WA, only about 18,000 are harvested every year. A 25% increase would only be about 5,000 additional acres each year. But these federal forests have not been logged and are irreplicable mature forests.” www.king5.com/article/news...

New research from my colleagues out today looking at the environmental and social impacts of food crop-based biofuels in the US, where we now use >30% of the corn supply and >40% of the soybean oil supply (on tens of millions of acres of prime cropland) to produce only ~6% of US transport fuel. 🧪

I'm surprised when I see a motorist not playing with their phone while driving. Zero exaggeration. If you walk or bike anywhere with regularity, you can easily see what's happening behind the wheel of cars through a lens that motorists can't see of other motorists. It's absolutely alarming.

This is so fucking stupid and it's going to waste taxpayer money and resources and firefighters lives on fires that should be left to burn while setting the stage for more extreme fires. Good job www.boisestatepublicradio.org/politics-gov...

Kids want to ride their bikes, they want to ride with their families, they want to ride safe. When you complain that "people don't use the bike lanes", does it occur to you that maybe that's because people can't get to the scraps of bike lanes safely enough to bother?

NEWS: A new memo released by the Trump administration concludes the president has the power to completely abolish national monuments designated by past presidents under the Antiquities Act. The legal conclusion sets up potential court fights over untested legal questions.

My strong instinct is that Trump's threats against Americans' first amendment right to peaceably assemble is going to massively juice attendance at Saturday's protests. www.nokings.org

Got to wear my bryologist and hydrologist hats last week working on a project at one of our experimental forests/ranges. Looking at seasonality of water flow in headwater streams and what the associated bryophyte (moss/liverwort) communities can tell us about it!
