In July, Scientific American published "What to Know about Project 2025’s Dangers to Science", an article by four of their editors, Ben Guarino, Andrea Thompson, Tanya Lewis, and Lauren J. Young. With a focus on abortion, agriculture, climate change, education, the environment, health care, and technology, the article characterizes the devastating effects on science of policies proposed in Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation's blueprint for a second Trump administration in the United States. Among the project's many radical, dangerous, and ridiculous proposals is the elimination of the National Weather Service, a move that would cripple the country's warning system for such severe weather events as tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and heat waves.
