U.N. Ocean Conference opens in France as U.S. government scientists stay away
Briefly

The third United Nations Ocean Conference convened in Nice, focusing on urgent actions to protect the world's oceans suffering from pollution, warming, and biodiversity loss. Leaders such as France's and Costa Rica's presidents stressed the necessity for comprehensive strategies to combat these challenges. Prior to the conference, scientists developed recommendations for policymakers. Notably absent were key U.S. scientific agencies, which raised concerns about the ongoing climate policy direction. Leading figures like John Kerry highlighted the importance of scientific integrity amidst political skepticism.
Never has your knowledge and expertise been more relevant than today, and never have we known - at least in the modern world - a time where the life's work of scientists is so openly scorned or ignored by those who claim to lead.
The main thing we see is the complete lack of U.S. federal scientists.
