PARIS (AP) — Without Russian help, climate scientists worry how they’ll keep up their important work of documenting warming in the Arctic.
Europe’s space agency is wrestling with how its planned Mars rover might survive freezing nights on the Red Planet without its Russian heating unit.
And what of the world’s quest for carbon-free energy if 35 nations cooperating on an experimental fusion-power reactor in France can’t ship vital components from Russia?
In scientific fields with profound implications for mankind’s future and knowledge, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine is causing a swift and broad decaying of relationships and projects that bound together Moscow and the West. Post-Cold War bridge-building through science is unraveling as Western nations seek to punish and isolate the Kremlin by drying up support for scientific programs involving Russia.
The costs of this decoupling, scientists say, could be high on both sides. Tackling climate change and other problems will be tougher without collaboration and time will be lost.

I thought the remote observation data collections of global temperatures was ill refutable?
They use remote data, observed data and proxy data so interchangeably the loss of one half of the arctic data should not be a problem.
Without Russia...science is just woked concensus.
Duh! If you launch an all out economic war with exactly what do you expect??
Not sure why AP is so worried. Russia will take its expertise (some of which is really good, by the way) and work with China now.
They’ll be fine.
Putin should just resign and submit to the international court to be charged for war crimes.
“Nuclear weapons are just a bluff. “
I believe his actually work, so time will tell on that.
One hopes that time won’t tell.
Oh good grief!
The depths of idiocy in our media know no lower limits.
“One hopes that time won’t tell.”
Actually, I wouldn’t mind him lighting off a few in the Russian Arctic, as part of a ‘test program’ to verify they’re ready for use. Might help the hippies now running the West to remember what they spent the entire Cold War protesting.
Just to scare the piss out of them.
Globo HomoNazi EviroWacko Woke Consensus is upset they won't have data to suppress, ignore or cherry-pick.
AP announces sweeping climate journalism initiative
Feb. 15, 2022
The Associated Press announced today it will significantly expand its climate coverage, creating a standalone desk that will enhance the global understanding of climate change and its impact across the world.
The initiative will infuse the global media landscape with a new stream of quality climate journalism through both AP content and in-depth training and collaboration directly with AP’s thousands of customers worldwide.
The news agency will also launch an AP StoryShare network for climate coverage, allowing news organizations to share their content with one another and in turn provide more robust coverage for their audiences.
The expansion is supported by several philanthropic organizations, including the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, Quadrivium and The Rockefeller Foundation. AP retains complete editorial control of all content.
“Unbiased, fact-based journalism has never been more important or imperiled,” said Larry Kramer, president of the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. “The Associated Press has, for over a century, played a crucial role reporting on the most pressing issues of our time, including climate change. The climate initiative will build on AP’s legacy of independent journalism and help millions better understand the impact of the climate crisis and counter climate-related misinformation.”

What! The Russians are going to travel to Mars and repossess the heating unit?
Climate scientists worry how they’ll keep up their important work of documenting warming in the Arctic.
How often do you hear them talk about China and India nope it’s always America if they are not with their agenda the game is futile it’s nothing but a money makes.
You have a better chance of trusting a used car salesman than them.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Can’t they just make up their data or jiggle their models? That hasn’t slowed them down in the past.
