Show Notes
The Trump administrations proposed plan to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, has sparked concern. The center, a top weather and climate lab since 1960, drives advancements in forecasting, modeling, and disaster prediction. Its research planes and supercomputer, Derecho, are crucial for tracking extreme events. Scientists warn this could hinder climate change studies and emergency preparedness. Colorado leaders and lawmakers from both parties are pushing back, urging the National Science Foundation to release details. Meanwhile, universities and private firms are vying for parts of the work, raising questions about future research priorities and the fate of iconic Boulder buildings.
