Last spring, National Geographic disappeared its own documentary featuring a queer woman ice core scientist. No explanation was given. They have since claimed "something came to light." My colleagues and I very skeptical. Gratitude to @evaholland.bsky.social and @defector.com for this story.

Also, NOAA Labs and Cooperative Institutes develop the warning software used by the TWCs (as well as NWS). gsl.noaa.gov/research/pro...

Motherfucking wind farms…

New measurement scale unlocked: Cherry-sized hail

Some shots from Colorado National Monument.

2024 was the hottest year on record. 2025 will be the dumbest.

Conservationists + Catron County (NM) residents are calling out a plan by the Catron County Board of County Commissioners to declare a “state of emergency” due to wolves in the County. However, there is no incident in recorded history of a Mexican wolf attacking or injuring a human.

It’s official! 🎬 @sundance.org will be moving to Boulder in 2027! Chancellor Schwartz says it best: "Boulder is an incredible place to immerse yourself in the arts, culture, nature and history that make life worth living." Read more → bit.ly/4iZGpMe

Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

My second climate article is now out! In this article I look to add context to where the current climate change movement stands in relation to past environmental movements and why advocacy is essential for creating institutional change. Let me know what you think! www.linkedin.com/pulse/topic-...

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Arctic Science Summit Week is happening this week at the University of Colorado Boulder! The conference provides opportunities for coordination, cooperation & collaboration between the scientific organizations involved in Arctic research. Learn more: www.assw.info

As an early career scientist and PhD student one thing I plan on making a staple in my career is climate communication and education. With the recent attacks on science, now seems as good a time to start. So if you have a few minutes please check out my first post: www.linkedin.com/pulse/10-ind...

Check out this piece on the Hazard Services Branch at NOAA GSL. I had the pleasure of working with Emily and Taylor (in article) and the rest of the HS crew the last few years. This article is a perfect example explaining how our expert civil servant scientists are literally working to save lives.

As a cadet one of our summer trainings was named in her honor “Task Force Perez” That summer we learned about her exemplary leadership as a cadet and officer. Any attempt to erase her story or impact is a disgrace to values of Duty, Honor, Country for which she made the ultimate sacrifice.

Had the privilege of working with NHC while at NOAA the past few years. These federal workers should be seen as essential assets for the U.S. improving public safety and science communication. This article should come as no surprise to anyone!

Please share this REAL impact! AK colleagues tell me 17 of 20 ppl were terminated from Mendenhall Glacier Visitors Center (MGVC) in AK. I’ve worked w/ this professional and wonderful group serving the public & they have a display in their museum about the Juneau Icefield Research Program (JIRP). 🧪

NOAA does a lot more than weather forecasting. Here's the list of line offices. Its value extends to so many different sectors that the public would be shocked to realize the volume of decisions made based on what NOAA provides. This is an agency where the "trickle down" theory legitimately occurs.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Time to get educated, and obviously had to get at least outdoorsy book.

28 people have added their names already. If you'd like to join us in solidarity and to emphasise the importance of EDI in polar science, then let me know. www.antarcticglaciers.org/2025/02/pola...

Originally introduced in 2018 to congress, and reintroduced on Jan 31, 2025, the attempted termination of the U.S. Dept of Education. I would recommend scientists & educators share this one and bombard your representatives to make sure it doesn’t make it anywhere. 🧪

ICE complaining about ACLU’s “Know Your Rights” education means it’s working. Everyone in the USA has due process rights. Keep sharing those ACLU red cards which list Constitutional rights. ICE: get a warrant. A REAL warrant signed by a judge #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

According to Shanghai Rankings CU Boulder is ranked: 🥉in Earth Sciences (🥈 in U.S.) 4th in Atmospheric Science (4th in U.S.) 16th in Geography (🥇 in U.S.) #SkoBuffs

If you’d like to know more about the extremely valid philosophical basis for this admonition, well… that’s exactly what my last publication was about. Give it a read!

#DYK glaciers are sensitive indicators of #ClimateChange and are retreating globally due to rising temperatures. Find out more about the International Year of Glaciers' Preservation #IYPG2025, implemented by @unesconow.bsky.social & @wmo-global.bsky.social : www.un-glaciers.org/en/homepage

❄️ 2025: the International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation ❄️ It was about time! At the initiative of Tajikistan, the UN has declared 2025 the International Year of Glaciers, with 📅 March 21st as the International Glacier Day. #IYGP #IYGP2025 (1/12)

Congratulations to Masters student Michela Savignano and PhD student Ethan Carr @ecarr48.bsky.social for presenting their research at #AGU24 👏 @agu.org @agucryo.bsky.social @ciresnews.bsky.social

Very excited to be attending the @agu.org Fall 2024 Meeting next week in Washington DC. On Thursday, I will be presenting a poster (C43A-0268) on the findings from my masters thesis. If you are interested in discussing Glaciology, GLOF events, or the evolving Greenland Ice Sheet please stop by!

This picture has a blue sky, am I doing this right?
