In addition to submitting public comments, don’t forget to contact your representatives in Congress about the damaging proposed changes to OMB’s federal grant making rules. You can use this quick action alert:

June 10th at 6pm ET, join a roundtable of community leaders and experts who will discuss how #EnvironmentalJustice communities work with nature to build community resilience in response to climate change and environmental hazards. 🌱🏘️🌳 RSVP📲 https://www.mobilize.us/nwf/event/955902/

As a former research administrator, this is yet another shocking consequence of stripping away federal investment in sound science. NSF no longer has the capacity to investigate research misconduct in the projects it funds. So much for “gold standard” science.

The future of conservation science in the U.S. is still being written. Many thanks to the all scientific and civil society organizations willing to work together to ensure that science that benefits people and nature will survive and thrive.

Good morning! I hear a lot about fear of speaking out and standing up for science. A friendly reminder that I haven’t experienced a SINGLE blip of retaliation & science whistleblowers at 2 of 3 agencies who were retaliated against have been reinstated. Do NOT obey in advance. GET LOUD!
