No worries we’d love to have you in Europe. It’s just a short hop away

Meanwhile, the EU is gutting the Green Deal. We're not (yet) as far gone as US Americans but that's little consolation.

People are gonna die because of this. With no one to monitor the weather situations all around the country, especially severe weather, the results aren't gonna be pretty...

It's become necessary. If the important preventative work we do is devalued, then the only solution is to allow the most severe problems to reappear so a new generation can directly experience life without those mitigation measures. Since they won't listen to anyone without directly experiencing something themselves, then direct experience simply becomes necessary.

Is there a count of the number of people that have left (fired/resigned/laid off) any US government agency?
