On this episode of “The American Resolution”, Heather Gardner speaks with Monica Medina, former deputy administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) about how the recent cuts and layoffs at the agency could affect OUR daily lives.
They start by breaking down what NOAA is, and what is does (3:45) and how it’s different from the National Weather Service (5:45). Monica explains why a long-standing personal beef with President Trump may be the reason for NOAA being targeted (11:00), and why putting the agency back together would be incredibly difficult if it’s dismantled (18:00)
Finally, they discuss why the agency’s role in climate forecasting is another major reason the Trump administration wants to cripple it (24:30), and what concerned citizens can do to push back in order to save this critical agency (29:30).
