I have zero patience for “do climate work but just don’t call it that”.
I am not talking in code about an existential threat bc a handful of Americans like profiting off oil and gas & have managed to brainwashed another handful of Americans.
Don’t capitulate. They’ll take your funding anyway.

As you say: They're going to defund us anyway. I'd rather go down with my values intact.
Hiding does nothing.
We need more people working to deploy climate actions in my opinion.
We need to address this head on, and not be dissuaded by misinformation from big oil & gas and the Trump folks.
If you had a grant that mostly wasn't climate change related, but had some implications, you can wordsmith your way around it, probably.
But actual work studying climate change? No way.
Be strong and direct and honest 👍
They have no spine to fight back
It's not deliberate or some type of subterfuge we commit in order to attract funding. Our mandate is just habitat focused.
We had our US federal grant funding pulled. You are absolutely right.
Just saying…
WEIRD.
I'd be in the application year that just opened, so my information on how the program will be continuing is super limited
No!
