It seems that President Trump's continuing war on climate science is going to adversely affect my own "#Arctic citizen science" work:

https://GreatWhiteCon.info/2025/05/trumps-climate-cuts-affect-the-nsidc/

"I frequently post a summary of the Arctic section of the United States’ National Snow and Ice Data Center’s monthly review of the current state of the #cryosphere.

However, this month I have some additional bad news to report. According to a May 6th 'Level of Service Update for Data Products' from the #NSIDC:

'Effective May 5, 2025, #NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (#NCEI) will decommission its snow and ice data products from the Coasts, Oceans, and Geophysics Science Division (#COGS).

As a result, the level of services for affected products below will be reduced to Basic—meaning they will remain accessible but may not be actively maintained, updated, or fully supported.

Sea Ice Index...

If you rely on these products in your work, research, education, or planning, we invite you to share your story at [email protected]. Your input can help us demonstrate the importance of these data sets and advocate for future support.'

If you are a resident of the US you may also wish to contact your local friendly neighbourhood politician(s) about the matter?"

The #Democratic campaign attacked #trump saying even his advisers have noticed him becoming "'increasingly detached from reality,' spewing 'increasingly bizarre claims,' and spiraling into 'truth decay' 'that it's undermining his real-world #campaign.'

The #Harris campaign called Trump's agenda "dangerous and #bizarre singling out his plan to use local #Police forces to "round up millions of #immigrants — and his plan to gut #SocialSecurity funding.

Nonsense!

@kottke RAND has been consistently writing about #TruthDecay the last 18-24 months, but the irony of course is that it's having to be heard above the din of the enshittification machine of the idiot agit-prop model itself.

Here's Chapter 3 of our fable about the so called "Multiple #pollution breaches at Dairy Crest's #Davidstow site":

"Perhaps that goes at least some way towards explaining why none of the numerous other articles that have recently been published on the topic mention #IoT?"

"Both articles concentrated on the 'human interest' side of the story rather than some of the more 'technical' issues that were also discussed. However Lisa’s video did include some mention of such esoteric matters."

I've been otherwise occupied this week. #ITV called us on Monday morning, and we ended up on their 6PM West Country News bulletin.

I've finally found the time to start documenting the week's events, in a somewhat satirical style:

"Jonathan Swift wrote in The Examiner, Nov. 9, 1710: 'Falsehood flies, and the truth comes limping after it.'”

"Michael D. Rich, President and CEO of the nonprofit, nonpartisan #RAND Corporation, will discuss the phenomenon RAND is calling #truthdecay—the diminishing role of facts and analysis in American public life. Truth decay has led to the erosion of civil discourse, political paralysis, and disengagement from #political and civic institutions." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsyyZ2ZyFXk
