From Master Resource<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Robert Bradley Jr.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want to know why the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration needs a massive downsizing? Because it is a political organization masquerading as a weather forecast center. And the climate lobby is upset at the clean-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monday between 10:00 am and noon eastern, the Chesapeake Climate Action Network \/ Action Fund<\/a> is hosting a \u201cHands off NOAA<\/a>!\u201d rally at NOAA\u2019s headquarters in Silver Springs, MD. Here is CCAN\u2019s announcement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The Trump Administration and Elon Musk continue to recklessly demonize dedicated federal workers who provide critical services every day. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) who provide critical services from the National Weather Service to seafood safety is not immune from DOGE\u2019s intimidation tactics to fulfill the promise of Project 2025 to eliminate NOAA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we are NOT going to sit back and watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Monday, March 3rd at 10am Congressional leaders and advocates will gather at NOAA HQ in Silver Spring, MD (right at the Silver Spring Metro stop) to tell Trump and Musk to keep their hands off of NOAA.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The call-to-action continued:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Firing hundreds of NOAA workers would have severe impacts on day-to-day life for Americans. We depend on NOAA workers every day to warn us of weather events, protect our commercial fisheries, support first responders when disasters happen, and much more. We have already seen the damage Trump and Musk have done to other critical agencies. We have seen how families and communities have paid a heavy price for so-called \u201cefficiency.\u201d NOAA must be defended!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

On the contrary, NOAA workers with their nice severance package can find employment in the private sector, even if it means a career change. Foundations can take over functions considered vital to human wellbeing to reemploy the displaced. But climate lobbying is over on the taxpayer\u2019s dime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sarah Guy<\/a>, executive director of Ocean Defense Initiative, stated on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\"\ud83d\udc99\"\"\ud83d\udc99\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0is with NOAA employees who lost their jobs today as DOGE sows’ chaos across federal agencies. But as\u00a0Chesapeake Climate Action Network<\/a>\u00a0says here, \u201cwe are NOT going to sit back and watch.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

I commented<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The private sector can pick up the NOAA ex\u2019s who add value to weather forecasting services, and foundations can underwrite research. Others should alter career paths into teaching or who-knows-what.

Political jobs are risky, and the US is broke! www.usdebtclock.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/a>and<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

That a climate group is leading the protest is exactly why NOAA is being downsized!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

In another post regarding NOAA, I noted that this agency\u2019s weather forecast for Texas in the winter of 2020\/21 was so wrong that it contributed to the Great Texas Blackout from Storm Uri<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other voices of despair were heard with the announcement. Jane Lubchenco<\/a>, Deputy Director for Climate and Environment in Biden\u2019s White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, stated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The mass firings today at NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration<\/a> are a national disaster and a colossal waste of money.  Destroying NOAA\u2019s ability to provide life-saving information, keep our ocean healthy, and strengthen the economy makes no sense\u2014no sense at all. NOAA is a lean agency, with highly skilled, impressively dedicated people \u2013I know because I have worked with them for years. We need them; all of them.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

A lean agency? Need every last employee? That\u2019s one bureaucrat protecting another, part of the Climate Deep State in this instance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out this function of NOAA<\/a> that screams for budget cut for ecological improvement<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
