Rose Abramoff [account moved!]Jan 10, 2023

Update: I was fired. I loved working at ORNL's Climate Change Science Institute and am devastated, but am also more determined and hopeful than ever. We have incredible power to affect change together.🌱

I still plan to continue with both research & activism, to the extent possible.

To my wonderful colleagues: My temporary affiliation is LSCE. Please use my personal rather than my work email, which I no longer have access to. Thank you for all of the support so far ♥️

I knew that I could face retaliation, but inaction during this critical time will have far greater consequences.

@ultracricket My upmost support and solidarity. Your protest was right and courageous, and it is deeply shocking and wrong that you lost your job for it. It was no doubt done to send a strong signal - but what a signal. And so sorry that you are having to personally suffer for jt. Are there any ways you can legally challenge your dismissal? If you won that would be hugely important signal and victory too. So many battles to fight
