One of the many terrible things the current administration is doing is making sweeping cuts to science research, including climate and weather. This is dangerous for Americans of course, but also to people in other countries who use and build on research done here. The work these scientists do is important, and the cuts we're seeing now have the potential to cause problems for decades to come.
"From Wednesday, May 28th to Sunday, June 1st, join meteorologists and climate scientists from across the US as we share our work, and show you what makes it so vital. We will clarify the impact of the cuts on this research, and answer your questions about weather and climate research in the US."

The Environmental Protection Agency concluded Friday that greenhouse gases linked to climate change "endanger public health and welfare," setting the stage for regulating them under federal clean air laws.
The EPA action marks the first step toward imposing limits on pollution linked to climate change, which would mean tighter rules for cars and power plants. Agency officials cautioned such regulations are expected to be part of a lengthy process and not issued anytime soon.
