We’ve now gained 13.5 million jobs under President Biden with 187,000 last month.

That monthly average is higher than any President on record – by far.

Brilliant map - true perspective of the scale we are talking with the ocean - simply too big to be ignored!

Awesome opportunity for a macroeconomist. The CEA leads the process for producing the Administration's economic forecast. And the Deputy Director would have a big role in producing it. Also, a great team to work with.

.President Biden and I have made the largest-ever investment in electric vehicles. By investing in zero-emission vehicles, we will cut carbon emissions and build healthier, cleaner, and safer communities.

#PalmyraAtoll is part of the PRI & is abundant with thousands of #crabs , including #hermitcrabs and the colossal #coconutcrab ! Crabs are vital food sources for many other animals & as scavengers, they help #decompose rotting matter back into nutrient-rich materials.

🚨 We just experienced a truly historical month for global climate - record hot in July 2023...

[(Preliminary) GISTEMPv4 data/info: data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/faq/]

Similar record using NOAA data: noaa.gov/news/record-sh….

While this off-the-chart July is a pretty shocking, it is also related to several compounding factors.

But to be very clear, the long-term warming is due to human-caused climate change from the burning of fossil fuels.

NOAA Yes, this was also the hottest absolute month (graph by NASA GISS at data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs…)...

Exciting discovery of a whole new ecosystem *beneath* hydrothermal vents! Cool! So much yet to be discovered in the ocean!

The 'CHIPS and Science Act of 2022' bolstered National Science Foundation's leadership in unleashing innovation anywhere & opportunities everywhere.

Today at Univ. of Nevada Reno, alongside White House Office of Science & Technology Policy, we see how NSF investments are fostering workforce development & catalyzing regional innovation ecosystems.
