Thank you so much @jencarfagnoweather.bsky.social @alexwallaceweather.bsky.social for making www.cloudwarriorsbook.com the first “Shelf Life” selection. Can’t wait to see what’s next.

This doesn’t feel like “background” but instead the heart of a story that should be leading national news for days. Yes there has been coverage but not enough that gets at these on the ground details and moves them to the top of stories.

NEW: Nearly $50M in research and education funding for farmers and nonprofits remains on hold at USDA.
It's not clear why but the end of FY25 is almost here.
If it's not spent, the money goes back to Treasury.
