Show Notes
Boulder leaders and groups are rallying against the National Science Foundations proposed restructuring of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), fearing it could disrupt vital weather science operations and harm local industries. The NSF is considering private or public takeovers of NCAR, which has faced threats from the Trump administration. Local voices, including former congressman David Skaggs and groups like CO-LABS, warn that splitting up NCAR could hurt the economy and jobs. The city manager and mayor have also expressed concerns about potential loss of water services. A bipartisan group of lawmakers has opposed any weakening of NCAR, stating it would harm weather research and partnerships needed for extreme events.
