In my many years serving this country (31) and people it makes me both angry and sad that this is being allowed to happen! Good people are losing their livelihood due to some rich POS that has not clue was service is! This has to stop.
The White House administration, as a collective group, has poor critical thinking skills and is unable to reimagine how energy can be generated to meet increasing demand.
Genius. Fire anyone working to do anything to protect the people.
Where is all the money they are “saving” going? They are breaking everything & getting no return on “investment”. So what is all this achieving? Profit for Trump & Elon. Tax cuts for the ultra wealthy elite. Nothing worth it.
Guaranteed to speed up the planets warming, all the natural calamities that come with that, and rates of all illness due to air pollution, heat, and stress. 💔
These regressionists want to have us back to a time when our waters were grossly polluted and our air unbreathable. And then they’re also taking away all our health care so more folks will die.
And then they say they want to force a baby boom? Who would bring a newborn into this mess?
If those in the Regime, agents, and co-conspirators were on a boat and could choose a life preserver or cement block they’d choose the block every time.
The problem here is they are tying all of us to the block too. They do not care who or what they harm in pursuit of personal profit and power.
He’s actively trying to destroy this nation and set us back 100 years.. the head start we’re giving everyone else in renewable energy will take decades to overcome.. fuck you, trump…
Canada, Australia, and Europe are working on grant programs for American scientists if memory serves. If anyone has links to these wrongly terminated workers, please let them know.
If they're able, everybody who is "fired" from public service in the U.S. should make their way to Canada. We will continue to build a strong, caring, rich, and free democracy in the True North. 🇨🇦💪
The Lab had to make tough decisions in order to survive the drastic funding cut forced on them by the federal government. They are not a federal department or agency in and of themselves. They are however dependent on the federal government for their funding. What would you have them do?
I'm not blaming the NREL or the people fired. Just saying DOGE is cutting funding is too opaque - who decided the cutting? Which DOGE boy sent the letter? Can that information be known? The person should be named and shamed so we can keep account.
I also wish that Lab leadership would publish an op-ed in response, calling out the lies and disinformation used to justify the government’s ridiculous claims.
Great. And school is almost out for the summer so no interim sub jobs. (The amount of obvious government professionals I’ve seen as subs the past few months is a lot!). This is gonna hurt even more.
I wonder what the unemployment rate will be when the felon is through? When will people rise up? When will our elected representatives stand up and actually do something?
I chose the right time to go back to college for environmental science. Hopefully, companies outside the US will hire a middle-aged recent college grad in a few years.
Our great grandchildren will struggle to breathe, suffer from headaches, and will be unable to concentrate due in large part to Trump's reckless, backward-thinking environmental policies.
So when they are forced to take less paying jobs to make ends meet will Trump’s Labor Dept. be adding those jobs to their jobs report and applauding all the crap jobs he created?
These are people whose only outdoor activity is on a manufactured golf course….they don’t care about anything on the planet that doesn’t line their pockets. When it’s gone, they will be too. They don’t care about future generations…they assume their descendants will be living in a colony on Mars.
It is just the tip of the iceberg. I wanted to use that metaphor before it became irrelevant.
Almost all of the National Labs work on alternate / renewable energy. Anything that isn't "beautiful, clean coal" is on the chopping block, but NREL is especially sensitive.
This administration is hung up on old technology like walls, coal, and internal combustion engines. America should be investing in the future, but MAGA wants to make America more like 1725 than 2025.
Some in the crowd believe that forcing an early Apocolypse will bring a grand eternal life sooner -- and may be actively pursuing that. Personally, I'm fond of this life and think we should treat our planet (and each other) with respect.
Wore peace sign & make love not war & daisy & let the sunshine in t-shirts (even
small sizes came down to my ankles!)
We all accepted pushback & serious conflict.
We did NOT expect these historically illiterate cyber war men-boys rolling roughshod over the most vulnerable of all of us
Yes. I'm older; child of the 50s; teen of the 60s. USMC bases in Ca til '59. Moved to racist NC; recess was stand around & tell latest "n***** jokes." Then to Tn, segregated schools. News:was firehoses, police dogs, church bombings, murders. Then JFK.
BUT!
CRA, VRA, HOPE!
55 yrs later not so much.
And when something goes wrong, he'll blame the Biden administration for his OWN failures, because that's what he does. It's always someone else's fault, but never the orange turd.
Kong Con and his racist minions: insuring that our children and grandchildren get their renewable energy technology from every country but America that will always be 2-6 years behind in innovation and price. But hey, we don’t have DEI and can say Gulf of America.
The media has helped normalize the illegal, unconstitutional layoffs of over 100,000 federal workers. Are we supposed to accept that our tax dollars are supporting an ineffective congress as well as a tyrannical executive branch? I think not. 5 Calls is a great app
Bc it's way better to let China take the lead in renewables as the earth burns down from climate change. Fucking idiots. We wouldn't want to be leaders or even make a profit in this area bc it is too "Woke" 🙄
Trump is against Renewable Energy
He is against people believing in Climate Change
He wants to go back to coal
About the dirtiest energy available
Probably the most harmful to the environment
And yet he is doing away with NIOSH
That helps detect Black Lung which kills miners
Why plant trees for your kids to have shade under when you can cut down all the trees your own parents planted for you and your kids to have shade under, or something along those lines I guess
It's kinda always been their thing though, so it shouldn't come off as too much of a surprise - "A 2024 Northwestern Mutual survey shows that around only 22% of baby boomers will leave an inheritance to the children."
Folks we all saw this coming . If you have research save it. Save it some place where “ they” can’t get it or delete it. Another country. The science goes on.

Move away from oil. Don’t buy what you want , only what you need.

There must come a point (long since passed it) where people say this is not for the good of the people of America or the planet and they are removed from government and society. Surely the world cannot let a handful of crazy people ruin everything life itself in their hunger for riches.
Oh ffs! We can’t afford to move backwards! Renewable energy should be a national priority. Cutting expert staff at NREL undermines progress and climate resilience.
I am grateful for your posts but as I read them I am sad. We are losing so much progress, so much knowledge, and so many professional people have been caught in the ignorant buzzsaw of this regime. I'm a retired environmental health scientist. We must not lose hope but is hard.
Trump’s war on renewables is a gift to Big Oil—halting wind/solar projects, pushing fake ‘clean coal,’ and ignoring climate science. His policies kill jobs, raise energy costs, and sabotage America’s clean energy future. All part of a pattern.
Narcissistic authoritarian felon sociopathic pathological liar tyrant wannabe king is bankrupting our government by dismantling, weakening it and tanking global economy so he can have COMPLETE CONTROL. Fascist oligarchy can't survive when confronted with worker solidarity! Nip them in the bud. NOW!!
You're free men. Nothing can take that from you but your own cowardice & failure to act.
It's your country, Rights, & freedom. It's your responsibility to protect it from all enemies, foreign and domestic.
We the People are the front line and the last line of defense. Call out the militias.

They are cutting everything that helps our country & citizens.

All because we rejected him.

They are sabotaging everything, committing TREASON daily…for personal profit and power.
Those loyal to the Republic need to remove them post haste.

Don’t track it it didn’t happen
He’s already stated his mission to plunder the National Parks for oil
Exploration and Drilling where we could have solar and wind power
We’ve become a backwards time warp country
And who wins…
Every country that promotes new energy technologies
