From a source: “Just had a co-presenter for a buildings research conference bow out. She’s a dual citizen and the FBI came knocking to ask her about her involvement in coauthoring chunks of the Paris Agreement.
Climate science is being literally (and I mean literally) criminalized.”

Our new commentary rdcu.be/ftx6h in @natecoevo.nature.com written with folks from @inaturalist.bsky.social and @cornellbirds.bsky.social shows that use of AI to manipulate existing or create new wildlife images undermines the huge value of vast citizen science databases. 🌍🪰🪶 #Ornithology 🧵 1/10

Official US economic statistics are no longer reliable and community efforts will be needed to replace them. Reply “YES” to this post if you have a job and “NO” if you don’t. Later on someone can count them.

Project 2025 plans to break up and reduce the components of NOAA. But the services NOAA provides, every citizen uses every day.
I paid the price for speaking out about “Sharpiegate.” Scientists can’t be silent now, either.

This is obviously good, but we need to stop doing referenda/plebiscites on issues that are fundamentally about evidence/science. Citizen votes are about values. Otherwise, governments should just govern.
