""This facility is one of the largest sources of climate alarmism in the country," wrote Russell Vought, Trump's budget director, announcing the planned closure in a post yesterday on the social-media platform X."
""will be breaking up NCAR to eliminate Green New Scam research activities. Any vital functions, such as weather modeling and supercomputing, will be moved under the purview of another entity or location.""
"On Wednesday, the consortium that runs NCAR received a letter of intent from the NSF regarding the planned breakup of NCAR, consortium president Antonio Busalacchi told Nature. The letter requested information regarding divesting, transferring or restructuring the various components of NCAR. It mentioned NCAR's research aircraft fleet and its supercomputing center in Cheyenne, Wyoming, as components that might be relocated. "Morale is terrible," Busalacchi says."
The administration intends to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado, which provides climate modelling and Earth observations used across US and global research. The White House and budget officials described NCAR as a source of climate alarmism and announced plans to break up the center and move vital functions such as weather modeling and supercomputing to other entities or locations. The NSF sent a letter of intent asking about divesting, transferring or restructuring NCAR components, including its research aircraft fleet and supercomputing center in Cheyenne. Political and legal challenges from Congress and local representatives are expected.
