Her protest where Trump withdraws support for the research that states “climate” Climate crisis


The Trump administration is stripping support for scientific research in the United States and external that contains a word you find in particular: “climate”.

Academics said that the US government withdraws grants and other support for research, which even indicates the climate crisis, amid Blitzkrieg in Donald Trump on environmental regulations and clean energy development.

Trump, who said the climate crisis is a “giant trick”, has already stripped signals of climate change and global heating from government websites and ordered the suspension of programs that indicate diversity, equality and integration. The freezing of widespread funding for federal scientific work has been imposed, as the American scientific community threw chaos.

The researchers said that the work that mentions the climate is especially targeted. An environmental scientist who works in the western United States and who did not want to call, said that a grant she previously granted from the Ministry of Transport for Climate Research Research, until they removed it to remove the word “climate”.

“I still have a grant because I changed the title,” he said. “I was told that I need to do this before publishing the title of the grant at the US point [Department of Transportation] Web site for keeping it. The interpretation was that the priorities of the current administration do not include climate change and other topics that are considered “wake up”.

The researcher said they were “shocked because the grant was already granted and I risked its loss. I am very concerned about science politically. If researchers are not able to use certain words, some sciences are likely to be biased.”

Signs are cleaned to the climate elsewhere as well. The course of the training course will be deleted at the National Disaster Training Center at the University of Hawaii, “Climate Change” signals, which are leaked email messages that The Guardian Show. The amendments, at the request of the Trump administration, affect dozens of different course materials.

“Specifically, the signals or review of the” climate change “and DEI (diversity, fairness and integration) have been removed, reviewed, reviewed,” said the center official. “Please be careful when referring to these topics during education.”

Animus management has extended to climate research abroad through the United States Fulbright Exchange, which offers about 8,000 grants annually to American and foreign teachers, researchers.

Karl Hiri, the Helsinki University Adviser in Finland, said that the description of the granting of Volibright has changed to remove or change the phrase “climate change”, as well as “fair society”, “comprehensive societies” and “women in society”.

Herry said that a university grant has already been withdrawn as a result of the changes he said was also imposed through other countries participating in the Volibright program. Volibright and the US State Department were asked about the ban on drafting.

“I understand that these measures are the result of changing priorities in the US government,” said Herry. “Research will harm many important areas, especially since American researchers in many cases are among the best in their field.”

At the National Science Corporation (NSF), a $ 9 billion federal agency that supports research in science and engineering, combing the difference through active projects Look Dozens of words, including “women”, “biased” and “equality” that may violate Trump’s ban on some grants.

NSF, which only has Firing About 10 % of its workforce, did not answer the questions about whether the climate is also listed in the banned menu. Regardless, the supportive grants of a group of scientific works were frozen amid this enthusiastic task to install newspapers among scientists, although the court order is demanding freezing.

“[The] “NSF is urgently working on a comprehensive review of our projects, programs and activities to be compatible with the current executive requests,” the Foundation.

Grants freezed through the scientific work through federal agencies, hospitals and universities, and set up the future of hundreds of millions of dollars “from research”.

“The most vulnerable people in our society in terms of health and public safety are now more dangerous,” said Jennifer Jones, director of the Science and Democracy Center at the Union of Scientists concerned.

“This administration does not have a plan to enhance science, and they have a plan to remove obstacles suffering from the oil and gas industry. They want to return to an era in which children have polio, rivers are burning and cities are covered with pollution.”

Jones said that the United States government may move in the direction of Florida, as the Republicans banned climate change in state laws. She said: “I live in a state that we are threatened more than ever from climate change, but state employees cannot mention this.” “This administration wants scientists to feel threatened. We have seen this before but Trump is doing it on an unprecedented scale now.”

The attack on the flag “feels the personality at the present time” and may deter a new generation of young scientists from entering their fields of research, according to Joan Carne, the chief government official of the American Association for Science Affairs.

“We can see a decrease in the entire fields of scientific research that will slow our ability to understand natural policies and craftsmanship to protect society and national security,” Carney said.

“We are concerned about the signal that is sent to any interesting student’s interest in STEM [science, technology, engineering and mathematics] “Who may not think they can see a future in the United States,” she said. “We need more investment in science and technology to be a global leader at this moment. Our opponents will be very happy with this.”
