Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.
One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.
When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?

It's over.
Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

My neighbour down the road was telling me their kid lost a tooth yesterday so they left it in an envelope under the kid's pillow last night and this morning when they woke up there was a Peace Prize in the envelope.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

Nova Scotia is taking the fight to MAGA.
Last March they pulled all the booze off the shelves. Now they are selling it all off in a Xmas firesale-with proceeds going to the food bank.
And then they are done with US purchases.

Nelson Mandela died 12 years ago. In 1995 the UK government rejected his personal appeal to impose oil sanctions on Nigeria after its military regime executed nine environmental activists — as it wanted to protect oil company Shell’s commercial interests.

Elon Musk is worse at hiding it but this is the problem with all billionaires: they are a threat to democratic governance. They have an insatiable need to own and control everything. If you want to be free you have to curb their power, and demand political leaders who understand that
Elon Musk is against the European Union being the European Union —he posted this after X (fka Twitter) was fined for violations of the EU’s Digital Services Act.
