Hearing from folks! I know the FS has barred employees from talking to the press. I can keep your name and identifying details out of my story—won't publish anything without explicit ok. Seems equally important I talk to researchers working with the FS, who can talk about what we stand to lose...

If anyone on here works at one of the 57 forest service research stations that are going to be closed and you want to tell me about your work there and why it's important, reach out: jmckenzie@thebulletin.org

Exactly. Forest Service leadership is being incredibly vague in listing locations (cities) instead of the actual names of what they aim to close. It would be helpful *and demonstrate transparency* if the Forest Service would communicate the names of the sites, and total staff affected.

What will happen to the 82 USFS experimental forests around the country? Many sites have decades-long experiments that are tracking how forests are changed by timber harvesting practices and climate change. As I say here, “you can't just pick up an experimental forest site and move it to SLC.”

Friendly House leaders are looking at next steps. Let’s be real: USFS leaders assumed quiet diligence and results would be respected. If your work is affected by closures— send a tip to let House leaders know the work you do at your facility. democrats-naturalresources.house.gov/contact/tipl...

To understand this thread, you have to understand that NCAR's models like CCSM and CESM are just... everywhere. There's only so many computers in the world that can run these things, and one of them is here. Where do those data show up? bsky.app/profile/davi...

Another insane move from the Trump regime. One of NCAR's contributions to climate science is the development of the Community Earth System Model (CESM), which is used by researchers worldwide. Here's a simulation of air-sea CO₂ fluxes from CESM.

This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is no time for despair. No place for self-pity. No need for silence. No room for fear. We speak. We write. We do language. That is how civilizations heal. - Toni Morrison
