I talked to the Seattle Times about how loss of our region's Climate Adaptation Science Center and NOAA Climate Adaptation Partnership would slash our capacity to support NW climate resilience. “If the (centers) are eliminated, then our resource managers are going to be flying blind,” Krosby said."

Sediment people … does anyone have a recent price for a malvern 3000? Our malvern 2000 is not supported anymore and I think it may be time for a new instrument. Thanks!

Didn’t expect a Fee board meeting to bring me to the verge of tears. This slide is heart breaking. 42.4% of my students are food insecure and 43.1% are housing insecure in Seattle. Please donate to or find other ways to support your local #CommunityCollege. Our students are not okay.

It took about 24 hours for the post-Elon-tweet fear to move through my body and for me to get back into fight mode. Also, having a badass lawyer helps. I will not be silent in the face of personal attacks and attacks on the #TeslaTakedown movement. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Proposals include "a new endangerment finding to supplant the current one, conducting a hostile review of U.S. and international climate reports, and recruiting a White House-approved list of researchers to produce a National Climate Assessment based on partisan research and industry studies."

On the train to #WOHESC conference to present my latest N S F funded project, Climate Justice in Undergrad STEM Incorporating Civic Engagement.

Hey Washington folks: please take two seconds to contact your state legislators to oppose HB 1038, which would ban gender-affirming care for kids in Washington. Gender-affirming care saves lives. Stand up for trans kids!

🧵 Awful news from NYS where @govkathyhochul.bsky.social just ran over our climate law and approved permits that will double the amount of fracked gas flowing through the aging metal straw called the Iroquois Pipeline. I condemn this Trump-like decision subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2025...

The world has changed before and, when it did, it wasn’t because a president, a prime minister, a CEO or a celebrity decided it had to. It began when ordinary people – people of no particular power, wealth, or fame – decided that the world could and should be different.

Climate touches everything. So disappointed in Susannah Grant writing Hemsworth to spout misinformation about coal mining and energy when renewables are cheaper and safer for health and climate. Art shifts culture and words on screen have power to support climate action, or climate destruction.
