From my Nature World View article just released:

"There have always been risks to scientists for speaking out, but in the spring of 2025 in the USA, those risks have never been so high. Perhaps for this very reason, the risks of remaining silent are even greater, which makes it urgent that those of us who are capable and able to speak out do so. If we allow the destruction of US science by this administration, then massive local and global environmental threats will not be identified and addressed; medicines that could save lives and reduce suffering will not be discovered or produced or delivered; and technologies that advance industries and provide jobs and economic growth will not be invented and built. In short, the dismantling of US science now underway will make us poorer, sicker and blind to developing problems.

History tells us that there are times when the dangers of inaction become sufficiently threatening to individuals or the planet that scientists who are able and willing to do so will have to enter the public arena and bring their voices to debates of critical societal importance. This is such a time."
