A couple of weeks ago @USFWS proposed that the Antillean manatee (as seen in #PuertoRico) be added to the #endangeredspecies list, but not the #Florida #manatee. The comment period is open until March 17.

These ruses are so obvious that (I hope) no one is fooled. Nice off-ramp for the Lieutenant Governor at the expense of more direct meddling in state-run higher-ed, all to pave the way for the next gubernatorial campaign.

Two things: (1) Just because it's cold on your street doesn't mean the entire world it cold. In fact, it was silly-hot in January♨️. (2) Unless we get our act together, we're 🔩
January 2025 was quite unexpectedly the warmest January on record at 1.75C above preindustrial, beating the prior record set in 2024. This is despite the presence of La Niña conditions in the tropical Pacific, with the El Niño event of 2023/2024 long faded.

Without DEI & affirmative action, I never get to save lives with my hurricane acumen. I was given an opportunity to study at an elite institution because I’m Puerto Rican 🇵🇷. And I became the 1st ever degreed meteorologist on Spanish language TV. And then Cat 5 Andrew hit Miami

GSA: “The Federal Advisory Committee Act was enacted in 1972 to ensure that advice by the various advisory committees formed over the years is objective and accessible... The Act formalized a process for establishing, operating, overseeing, and terminating these advisory bodies”
BREAKING: Acting @EPA Administrator James Payne has fired the agency's science advisors. They will be replaced in order to, he says, "ensure that the agency receives scientific advice consistent with its legal obligations to advance our core mission," whatever that means.
