Starting now in 342 come hear local fishers talk about their community science project with @ThrivingEarth #agu25

[AGU (American Geophysical Union) @theAGU]

The Trump Administration's plan to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research is senseless and dangerous.

It would weaken weather forecasting, climate research, and the science that keeps people safe. AGU urges the Administration to abandon this plan and protect NCAR — and all scientific institutions the public depends on.

Call Congress to #SaveNCAR today. https://t.co/QqqZVtEQYF

Maryland scientists are out in full force today on Capitol Hill! 🧪🔬 From climate to space to public health, they’re meeting with lawmakers—including a visit at Senator Van Hollen’s office—to advocate for robust federal science funding and the policies that keep discovery and progress moving forward. 💡📈

📞You can also speak up and stand up for science! Take just 5 minutes to call your members of Congress and help amplify their message.
