Supreme Court decision limiting scope of NEPA is interesting including liberal judges concurring. It rests agency discretion to decide whether to consider "upstream" and "downstream" effects in project scope. Read it! The case is a good overview of NEPA law! www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Have a good environmental social science research job, post doc, assistant prof, research associate? Lmk! Trump fired one of my former students…

If you're ever tempted to give a meaningless referee report for the purpose of telling the author to cite 10 of your marginally relevant papers, just stop right there. Reviewers and editors (like myself) see right through that and will have those references removed before publication. #AcademicSky

ICPSR at University of Michigan has been one of the longest-running secure data archives in the world and is stepping up to the challenges being presented in the current U.S. environment to keep government data as a resource for researchers and policymakers. isr.umich.edu/giving/suppo...

Upon learning that yesterday would be my last day as a program officer at the National Science Foundation, I shared this parting message with my colleagues. The next few months will be frenetic and stressful for them. Here are some things that you can do to help them with the mission ahead. (1)

This is a brilliant resource!! Please share widely!

Hearing from reliable sources that NSF was forced to fire the two permanent program officers that manage HEGS. This is a huge blow to Geography, the scientific community and most importantly folks who dedicated their lives to making the world a better place through scientific endeavors.

Here you go, everyone. This the Project 2025 Tracker, highlighting each objective and which ones they have completed Stunning to see it laid out like this. Even more stunning how many federal departments & agencies they have already sealed. www.project2025.observer

🚨 I'm hiring an env. social science postdoc for an NSF-funded project on drought (+other hazard) adaptation in rural communities! Research involves qual social science fieldwork in the beautiful Humboldt River Basin in Northern Nevada. Details/app ⬇️ nshe.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/UNR-external...

The @unevadareno.bsky.social & @driscience.bsky.social Nevada project team is amazing. Start date is June 2025 (flexible). I'm looking for someone who is comfortable with a lot of independence in research direction and field time but who also wants to work collaboratively and across disciplines.

The SAVE Act is systemic misogyny. It would disenfranchise tens of millions of women--those who changed their name after marriage but don't have either a birth certificate or a passport with their new legal name.

Looking for recommendations for good review papers on decision-making in conservation social science. Any suggestions? Particularly interested in frameworks, methods, and key debates. Thanks! #Conservation #DecisionMaking #SocialScience

Many of our friends in federal government and international organizations are not okay. If you haven't reached out to your friends who have probably been fired or put on administrative leave, reach out. They need massive emotional support right now.

For all my scientist friends wondering if you are going to get a grant termination letter from NSF and what to do if you do it.

OPM is planning to fire all employees on probation (less than one year of employment). Agencies have until noon on Wednesday to submit a list of probationary employees to the OPM and indicate whether they wish to retain them—though it has been stated that this will not make a difference.

NSF just wrote all PIs saying “all payments of funds under open awards will be paused as the agency conducts the required reviews and analysis.” ?!?!!!?!

This is a ridiculous headline. World bank staff go on mission for weeks. Many had no way of knowing what would come when their missions were planned.

The excitement of being a PI on an NSF grant lasted 6 months. I just received this email from NSF.
