NOAA is one of the US's strongest forces in the fight against #ClimateChange. As part of his attack on #EnvironmentalJustice, Trump granted Musk's DOGE access to NOAA's unclassified systems. The essential research and resources NOAA provides are at risk. www.wired.com/story/doge-e...

Elon Musk's DOGE is trying to downsize and defund NOAA, an agency crucial to fighting #ClimateChange. #Project2025 calls NOAA "harmful to US prosperity” for its role in climate science. But what's really harmful is Musk's influence over our government. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Trump's #DrillBabyDrill policy will throw fuel on the flames of the climate crisis. Clean energy would create millions of jobs and meet American's energy needs. Instead, Trump will let Big Oil and Gas profit from extraction. https://buff.ly/3PNIJJC
