- Reposted by Denis Gilbert 🌎That's terrible news to read. For us documenting #SeaIce, having colleagues that share comparable data obtained by different algorithms is a form of quality assessment of our own data. It is a terrible loss for us as it is for our whole user community. @eumetsat.int @nsidc.bsky.social
- This is horrible. I don't even know what to say. Some of our most key polar data.

- After subscribing to the #WashingtonPost for seven years, I cancelled my subscription. For me what moved the needle beyond the "no repair zone" was #Bezos 's recent heavy-handed decision to control content in the Opinions columns. This caused another resignation today. www.npr.org/2025/03/10/n...

- We live in stressful times. Given that, it's useful to zoom out and see the current media landscape (print, radio, TV, www, social media) from a broader philosophical perspective.

They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

As part of a massive restructuring/changes across the network, my role as climate writer was among the 200 that got cut last week. It’s disappointing, but I’ll be okay. My last day is on Feb 21.

- Trump’s executive order took aim at “environmental justice” — eliminating positions and assessing spending on projects, including those aimed at poor, rural communities. I talked to former WH environmental justice advisers to the Biden administration on what this means. www.cnn.com/2025/01/26/c...
