The anti-science Trumpers may be planning to destroy two working satellites that provide vital measurements about carbon dioxide & climate (and data that forecasts crop yield, drought conditions, & more). They cost $750 million to make but only $15 million/yr to operate. www.npr.org/2025/08/04/n...
"It is unclear why the Trump administration seeks to end the missions." Actually it is crystal clear: "They are the only two federal satellite missions that were designed and built specifically to monitor planet-warming greenhouse gases." Alternatives to CO2 energy are accelerating:

We're now living in Idiocracy.
Idiocratic fascism.
No fascism in Idiocracy. When intelligent guy comes, he can lead instead of dumb guy. Fascism doesn't work like that.
Invading barbarians destroyed much of the Roman Empire. The US is saving money by using "internal barbarians" - the Trump regime - to destroy itself. All of the plunder goes to Trump and his oligarchs, our modern barbarians
How can someone get so desperate to start supporting Trump ? Seriously, those people make me sick.
I just don’t understand the waste. Burning food, burning birth control, burning perfectly functional satellites… Just why?
Pure fascist ideology - forcing their own concept of oppression onto as many parts of the world as possible: causing starvation, forcing women to give birth, destroying science,… Just wait what happens when Thiel gets to implement his ideas across remaining western democracies through Palantir…
Destruction makes re-building harder; both logistically and politically. They know that they can attack a successor administration (presuming there is one) for 'wasting $750 million when veterans are suffering' if they replace the satellite.

Supporting global oil profits regardless of their impact on our lives on this planet is all part of their plan
What pressure from other counties could stop this?
Probably none. Remember that he believes he is the anointed king of the world & knows more than the rest of mankind.
MAGA = reign of the dumbest
They are pirates. Bandits. Vandals.
Six months of Trump’s golf costs—paid by taxpayers—would fund the satellites for over 3 years.

Make America Destroy Data #FAIL
I'm struggling to think of a reason other than the project has "Carbon" in its title.
Obscene.
Just like COVID, if you don't test, you have fewer cases. Can't argue with that logic. I mean, you literally can't argue with complete nonsense.
Trump knows he is mortal, so because he must sooner or later die, he has decided the whole human race must go too.
