@elizabethjacobs.bsky.social And another post here points to a worsening situation. We need more science funded right now, not less.

In a first-of-its-kind study, a team of researchers led by geoscientist Michael Rawlins at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has shown in fine-grained detail what happens when Arctic permafrost thaws. Focusing on a Wisconsin-sized area of Alaska's North Slope containing hundreds of rivers and streams flowing into the Beaufort Sea, the team analyzed 44 years of model data at one-kilometer grid resolution, revealing how massively runoff is increasing, the increased loads of previously frozen carbon flowing through northern Alaska's rivers and how the thawing season has extended into late-summer and fall.

And it is stunning that every Democrat is campaigning as individuals instead of running against the GOP-controlled House or Senate.
@elizabethjacobs.bsky.social it's amazing how the GOP was able to break the Democratic filibuster.
Maybe deciding to do nothing with the 2020 victory to maintain that wasn't a good move after all?
