Another anonymous staffer called the laid-off workers “dedicated, hard-working civil servants who came to Noaa to help protect lives and keep our blue planet healthy”.
I’m afraid those goals are at odds with your leadership.
All fossil fuel companies, plastic manufacturers and all around polluters just got unleashed and are ready to go all out. Protecting the planet is not the goal, no.
AccuWeather has been working on this since 2005

What’s stopping people from just ignoring trump and continuing to work?
I’d imagine the lack of income, probably
Not getting paid. Not having physical access to buildings. Not having working accounts on government computers.
Most people don’t like to work for free.
Homelessness, starvation, threat of police brutality…
