Last Tuesday, I was set to give a talk on 'climate change in the Northeast' at a retirement home but had to cancel due to hourly job threats. After nearly two weeks of overwhelming uncertainty, today it happened. I was fired from my dream of working at NOAA. I'm so sorry to everyone also affected.

This may be a hot take and contrary to a lot of climate comm methods out there. But I feel like if climate communication was focused on the science first, people would be more receptive to hearing the societal implications of the climate crisis.

Well worth a read for all glacios, and that Karl Schimper (amongst others) should be much better known!

In the meantime, take a look at the early days of glaciology. And why glaciers and other landmarks shouldn't be named after Louis Agassiz: open.substack.com/pub/glaciers...

More climate scientists need to see this. Climate change deniers are winning. Blocking was never the solution. Propaganda must be fought, not ignored. Who will follow my advice below? Anyone?

Propagandists are not trolls, they are intellectual thieves. They want you to block them so they can do what they want with your science without consequence.

Propagandists are stealing our work in increasingly successful attempts to undermine our credibility as scientists. If you're a scientist, they win when you block and ignore them. If you're a scientist on social media, the thread below is for you.

Don't think they only want to eliminate science, they want to replace science with propaganda. If you're a scientist still on Twitter, this thread 🧵 is directed at you:

Federal science agencies are under threat. AGU has made it easy to advocate for NSF, NOAA, NASA and more. Visit AGU’s Science Policy Action Center to stand up for science. fromtheprow.agu.org/standing-tog...

With the threats being levied against NOAA, I felt it was time to download all the sediment core and paleoceanography data being stored on NOAA's NCEI, just in case. I have uploaded the script to Github, just in case anyone wants to do the same! 🧪 ⚒️ 🦣 🌊 github.com/evangowan/EJ...
