Summary
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has imposed new restrictions on scientists’ emails and meetings with foreign nationals, raising concerns about global weather forecasting.
These measures require extensive documentation and case-by-case approvals from a Trump appointee, alarming European partners.
NOAA is also bracing for deep budget and staff cuts, part of a broader Trump administration effort to reduce climate-related initiatives.
Experts warn these restrictions and reductions could degrade weather services, disrupt international collaboration, and endanger public safety by limiting access to critical climate data.
Ah, the political officers have begun to appear. The CCP must be proud of how they’re influencing the US system now.
That’s literally it. Just like the Soviet Union.
