Waste heat from data centers can boost air temperatures in downwind neighborhoods by as much as 4 degrees Fahrenheit, researchers at Arizona State University report in a new study conducted in the Phoenix metro area, the hottest in the U.S.
I’ll never forgive NPS leadership, the pace at which they moved to follow illegal orders was astounding. HR moved faster than ever before to hire people when they are the ones that know best how to slow things down.
Not a single person in a position of power pushed back in anyway way. I’m not even talking about defying orders here. They didn’t even use existing policy to slow things down. There are mechanisms and choices that could have been made, but they didn’t do it.
I agree with you, but I think it’s important to point out that the people in power from his first term and now, are trump sychophants or direct placements by republicans. They didn’t do anything because they didn’t want to.
Not true, he appointed the Secretary (who also appoints the Director) yes but truthfully they do basically none of the work. The non-political civilian service employees do the work. Think regional directors (not politically appointed), heads of regional HR, and park superintendents.
These people had the ability to slow things down, and they chose not to. At best a few people resigned and interim leadership stepped in to carry out orders. These interim leaders were already NPS employees various Chiefs and Deputies of different branches (regional and parks).
These are people that have been in the park service 20+ years. Hell I saw a few of them break down and cry, and yet they kept the agendas rolling.
Policy alone lets you take 3 sick days in a row with no doctors note. At least do that much to slow it down
