44: Understanding the layoffs at NOAA (trying to)

Welcome back! I wish it was under better circumstances. If you feel super in the dark on what’s going on with NOAA and the federal government, this is a very basic overview that I hope sheds some light. What is NOAA, and what does it actually even do? How are the layoffs at the National Park Service & NOAA potentially going to impact our daily lives? What does he mean, “drill baby drill”!?!? These are the topics we’re talking about today. Let me know what you think and what I missed.


P.S. Sorry I’ve been MIA I miss talking about the ocean so much
