"content": "\u003cp>The Trump administration is considering alternative ways to pay for the border wall, backtracking on the president's oft-repeated promise that Mexico would foot the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A White House spokesman said one idea taking shape is to apply a 20 percent tax on imports from Mexico, as well as other countries with which the U.S. has a trade deficit. That would effectively saddle U.S. consumers with a significant portion of the wall's cost, estimated at $15 billion or more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's spokesman, Sean Spicer, did not offer details about how the import tax would work, but he said it could be adopted as part of comprehensive tax reform. After the idea sparked controversy, Spicer later walked back the idea, saying that \"it could be a multitude of things.\" The tax could be 20 percent or 18 or 5, he said, adding that he wasn't trying to be \"prescriptive.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump discussed the plan during a meeting in Philadelphia with congressional Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even floating this idea amounts to a remarkable capitulation by the new president, who was insisting as late as Wednesday that Mexico would bear the cost of the border barrier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mexico's refusal has already created friction between the countries.

That would effectively saddle U.S. consumers with a significant portion of the wall's cost, estimated at $15 billion or more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's spokesman, Sean Spicer, did not offer details about how the import tax would work, but he said it could be adopted as part of comprehensive tax reform. After the idea sparked controversy, Spicer later walked back the idea, saying that \"it could be a multitude of things.\" The tax could be 20 percent or 18 or 5, he said, adding that he wasn't trying to be \"prescriptive.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump discussed the plan during a meeting in Philadelphia with congressional Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even floating this idea amounts to a remarkable capitulation by the new president, who was insisting as late as Wednesday that Mexico would bear the cost of the border barrier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The restrictions are being characterized as temporary, and some have already been lifted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But climate scientists, in particular, are on edge because the federal government generates a huge amount of data on climate. That information is used in everything from farming to weather forecasting and insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take the example of a single agency: the \u003ca href=\"http://www.noaa.gov/\">National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration\u003c/a>. NOAA operates 17 environmental satellites, along with myriad instruments that collect data on land and in the oceans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When you add \u003ca href=\"https://science.nasa.gov/earth-science\">NASA\u003c/a>‘s satellites and instruments and scientists, as well as those at other agencies, you get the country’s biggest source of climate data — by far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those data are the main way we know what’s going on with the climate, says \u003ca href=\"https://dge.carnegiescience.edu/labs/asnerlab/\">Greg Asner\u003c/a>, who studies forests at Stanford University. “Nobody has databases like NOAA; nobody has instrumentation networks like NASA,” Asner says. “Without it, we will go blind. It’s like turning off the lights — we’re not going to know what’s happening at the Earth scale.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/511681532/511851773\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government’s role doesn’t stop with just collecting data. Federal scientists analyze the information and eventually release it to the public in reports such as the \u003ca href=\"http://nca2014.globalchange.gov/\">National Climate Assessment\u003c/a>. There have been three so far, and a fourth is due out next year. The assessments are required by law. Scientists from several federal agencies, including NOAA, write them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ocean scientist \u003ca href=\"http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/profiles/aug09/sweet.html\">William Sweet\u003c/a> at NOAA is currently working on the section about sea level rise. “Sea level rise is already happening and the impacts can be felt,” Sweet says. But those impacts, he notes, are not the same everywhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ocean is not a bathtub. It may rise in one place; it may drop in the other,” he says. Ocean currents and wind patterns distribute ocean water unevenly. And coastlines actually move up and down — sometimes it’s a long-term response to the retreat of glaciers during the latest ice age, and sometimes it’s from people draining groundwater. That “vertical land movement” influences how far inland water will encroach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”RXYwmM1OoblKGusqPnJZZXG0iXzR9pwx”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sweet says research prepared for the new assessment shows that the East Coast and parts of the Gulf Coast, for example, will experience even higher sea levels than the world average. And that world average? It could be 8 feet higher than it is now by the end of the century — about a foot and a half higher than predicted in the latest assessment, in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s the worst-case scenario. Sweet says it probably will be less — a lot depends on how much more carbon dioxide humans put into the atmosphere and how much of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets melt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the short term, he says, the assessment will provide news you can use. For example, there’s been an uptick in abnormally high tides — these cause “sunny day” flooding that occurs even when there’s no storm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At what point do these damaging, disruptive tidal flood events become the new norm?” Sweet says. He adds that the latest climate assessment will help answer that question by pinpointing where and how often these extra-high tides will hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local municipalities can use this information to prepare by deploying pumps, cordoning off streets or even building sea walls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s just a small part of what’s in the assessments. They also cover everything from drought to extreme rain and snowfall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what happens if the Trump administration tries to censor this huge scientific enterprise? \u003ca href=\"http://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/~peter/site/Home.html\">Peter de Menocal\u003c/a>, the dean of science at Columbia University, says there just isn’t any substitute for what federal climate scientists produce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The United States, I think, has the best organized and some of the top talent in climate science and engineering in the world,” he says. “The concern is that brain trust, that amazing compendium of knowledge, is going to disappear.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Federal scientists analyze the information and eventually release it to the public in reports such as the \u003ca href=\"http://nca2014.globalchange.gov/\">National Climate Assessment\u003c/a>. There have been three so far, and a fourth is due out next year. The assessments are required by law. Scientists from several federal agencies, including NOAA, write them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ocean scientist \u003ca href=\"http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/profiles/aug09/sweet.html\">William Sweet\u003c/a> at NOAA is currently working on the section about sea level rise. “Sea level rise is already happening and the impacts can be felt,” Sweet says. But those impacts, he notes, are not the same everywhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ocean is not a bathtub. It may rise in one place; it may drop in the other,” he says. Ocean currents and wind patterns distribute ocean water unevenly. And coastlines actually move up and down — sometimes it’s a long-term response to the retreat of glaciers during the latest ice age, and sometimes it’s from people draining groundwater. That “vertical land movement” influences how far inland water will encroach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sweet says research prepared for the new assessment shows that the East Coast and parts of the Gulf Coast, for example, will experience even higher sea levels than the world average. And that world average? It could be 8 feet higher than it is now by the end of the century — about a foot and a half higher than predicted in the latest assessment, in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s the worst-case scenario. Sweet says it probably will be less — a lot depends on how much more carbon dioxide humans put into the atmosphere and how much of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets melt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the short term, he says, the assessment will provide news you can use. For example, there’s been an uptick in abnormally high tides — these cause “sunny day” flooding that occurs even when there’s no storm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At what point do these damaging, disruptive tidal flood events become the new norm?” Sweet says. He adds that the latest climate assessment will help answer that question by pinpointing where and how often these extra-high tides will hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local municipalities can use this information to prepare by deploying pumps, cordoning off streets or even building sea walls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s just a small part of what’s in the assessments. They also cover everything from drought to extreme rain and snowfall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what happens if the Trump administration tries to censor this huge scientific enterprise? \u003ca href=\"http://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/~peter/site/Home.html\">Peter de Menocal\u003c/a>, the dean of science at Columbia University, says there just isn’t any substitute for what federal climate scientists produce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The United States, I think, has the best organized and some of the top talent in climate science and engineering in the world,” he says. “The concern is that brain trust, that amazing compendium of knowledge, is going to disappear.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

"content": "\u003cp>Scientists at the Environmental Protection Agency who want to publish or present their scientific findings likely will need to have their work reviewed on a “case by case basis” before it can be disseminated, according to a spokesman for the agency’s transition team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an interview Tuesday evening with NPR, \u003ca href=\"http://dougericksen.src.wastateleg.org/\">Doug Ericksen\u003c/a>, the head of communications for the Trump administration’s EPA transition team, said that during the transition period, he expects scientists will undergo an unspecified internal vetting process before sharing their work outside the agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ll take a look at what’s happening so that the voice coming from the EPA is one that’s going to reflect the new administration,” Ericksen told NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">Doug Ericksen’s comments come just days after Trump’s team ordered agencies to limit their external communications to the public.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Ericksen did not say whether such a review process would become a permanent feature of Trump’s EPA. “We’re on Day 2 here. … You’ve got to give us a few days to get our feet underneath us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any review would directly contradict the agency’s current \u003ca href=\"https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2014-02/documents/scientific_integrity_policy_2012.pdf\">scientific integrity policy\u003c/a>, which was published in 2012. It prohibits “all EPA employees, including scientists, managers and other Agency leadership from suppressing, altering, or otherwise impeding the timely release of scientific findings or conclusions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It also would likely have a chilling effect on the agency’s ability to conduct research on the environmental issues it is charged with regulating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ericksen’s comments come just days after Trump’s team ordered agencies to limit their external communications to the public. Employees at the EPA, the Department of Agriculture and the Interior Department, among others, have been instructed not to post on social media accounts. At the EPA, the staff was told not to speak to the news media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ericksen said it’s not abnormal for administrations to limit outward communication during their transition while they work toward getting different branches on point. Trump’s nominee for EPA administrator, Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt, is still awaiting confirmation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also not abnormal for administrations to restrict access to government scientists. In 2013, a statement by the Society of Environmental Journalists called the EPA under former-President Obama “\u003ca href=\"http://www.sej.org/new-epa-head-must-ensure-transparency-reversing-block-reporters-access\">one of the most closed, opaque agencies to the press\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s certainly the case that every administration tries to control information, but I think that what we’re seeing here is much more sweeping than has ever been done before,” said Andrew Light, the distinguished senior fellow in the Global Climate Program at the nonpartisan World Resources Institute. “And in particular, it’s noteworthy that it seems to be aimed at a cluster of science-driven agencies that primarily work on the environment and climate change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While previous administrations have restricted government scientists’ communications to the public, controlling their scientific conclusions is far more rare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps the most notable case came in 2003, when the administration of President George W. Bush tried to alter the climate change section of a major EPA report on the environment. According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, which tracks such issues, \u003ca href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/our-work/center-science-and-democracy/promoting-scientific-integrity/climate-change.html#.WIiwbFMrLct\">changes included\u003c/a> the deletion of a 1,000 year temperature record and insertion of a study funded by the American Petroleum Institute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many federal agencies employ scientists to help conduct research. Those findings are crucial in ensuring that regulations and government policy are based on the best information available. Data collected by federal scientists is also used by state and local governments as well as private industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The EPA’s policy, like those of other technical agencies within the government, is designed to encourage its scientists to participate in the scientific process.

It prohibits “all EPA employees, including scientists, managers and other Agency leadership from suppressing, altering, or otherwise impeding the timely release of scientific findings or conclusions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Employees at the EPA, the Department of Agriculture and the Interior Department, among others, have been instructed not to post on social media accounts. At the EPA, the staff was told not to speak to the news media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ericksen said it’s not abnormal for administrations to limit outward communication during their transition while they work toward getting different branches on point. Trump’s nominee for EPA administrator, Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt, is still awaiting confirmation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also not abnormal for administrations to restrict access to government scientists. In 2013, a statement by the Society of Environmental Journalists called the EPA under former-President Obama “\u003ca href=\"http://www.sej.org/new-epa-head-must-ensure-transparency-reversing-block-reporters-access\">one of the most closed, opaque agencies to the press\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s certainly the case that every administration tries to control information, but I think that what we’re seeing here is much more sweeping than has ever been done before,” said Andrew Light, the distinguished senior fellow in the Global Climate Program at the nonpartisan World Resources Institute. “And in particular, it’s noteworthy that it seems to be aimed at a cluster of science-driven agencies that primarily work on the environment and climate change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While previous administrations have restricted government scientists’ communications to the public, controlling their scientific conclusions is far more rare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps the most notable case came in 2003, when the administration of President George W. Bush tried to alter the climate change section of a major EPA report on the environment. According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, which tracks such issues, \u003ca href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/our-work/center-science-and-democracy/promoting-scientific-integrity/climate-change.html#.WIiwbFMrLct\">changes included\u003c/a> the deletion of a 1,000 year temperature record and insertion of a study funded by the American Petroleum Institute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many federal agencies employ scientists to help conduct research. Those findings are crucial in ensuring that regulations and government policy are based on the best information available. Data collected by federal scientists is also used by state and local governments as well as private industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The EPA’s policy, like those of other technical agencies within the government, is designed to encourage its scientists to participate in the scientific process. To that end, the agency’s official policy is to “encourage publication and presentation of research findings in peer-reviewed, professional, or scholarly journals and at professional meetings.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a \u003ca href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/news/press-release/EPA-USDA-scientific-integrity#.WIhXV1MrJjU\">growing concern\u003c/a> in the scientific community and among environmental organizations that the new administration might take aim at climate change research in particular.

A year later he was nominated to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, where he has earned a reputation as a scholarly conservative with a flair for writing vividly that is similar to — though perhaps not as sharp in tone as — Justice Antonin Scalia, the conservative icon whose death last year created the current Supreme Court vacancy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"izXy6iZpGCcu7JduaQFkMT4PwBp7t2se\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though Democrats would very likely oppose a Gorsuch nomination in large numbers, he is seen as less of a lightning rod than Judge Pryor, who famously called \u003cem>Roe v.

Thereafter, he was confirmed in a deal brokered by centrist Republicans and Democrats that allowed some pending nominees to go through, but not others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pryor, a devout Roman Catholic, is a particular favorite among evangelicals and other social conservatives, but he was criticized by some conservative activists when, as state attorney general, he led the charge in removing Alabama's chief justice for refusing to obey a federal court order to take a Ten Commandments monument out of the courthouse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"HwZRuE4nKY812xHrVfdZ9L0ariG7IxLR\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Pryor nomination would undoubtedly spark a major confirmation fight — a fight that Democrats are itching for.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the court's leading liberal, will turn 84 in March; Justice Anthony Kennedy, the court's so-called swing justice, is 80; and Justice Stephen Breyer, another of the liberal justices, is 78. So it is entirely possible that Trump could get two or three more appointments, leaving just two liberal justices on the court and providing conservatives with an overwhelming majority that could dramatically change the law for generations to come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the court's leading liberal, will turn 84 in March; Justice Anthony Kennedy, the court's so-called swing justice, is 80; and Justice Stephen Breyer, another of the liberal justices, is 78. So it is entirely possible that Trump could get two or three more appointments, leaving just two liberal justices on the court and providing conservatives with an overwhelming majority that could dramatically change the law for generations to come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Now that he is president, it's unclear just what that wall is going to look like and when it might get built.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What we know so far is that it's likely to be a fence, not a wall, it won't extend the length of the border and it will be very unpopular with its southern neighbor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the moment, about a third of the 2,000-mile border with Mexico is fenced. Some parts are 10 feet tall, some are 20 feet, some are wire mesh, some are steel beams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The oldest kind of fencing is made of landing mat material from the Vietnam War — it's the \"primary fence, which is a vehicle barrier\" so vehicles won't easily be able to drive from Mexico into the U.S., says James Nielsen, a Border Patrol agent in the San Diego sector.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Border enforcement officials have been telling Trump's transition team that a fence alone is not enough. You also need agents, camera towers, stadium lights and sensors. If the president insists on a \"great wall\" to deliver on his campaign promise, Customs and Border Protection has identified 400 miles where the fence can be extended or reinforced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/511165471/511165472\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there are clearly sections where it remains impractical.

The view from here is open country — no dividing line, no nothing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At the time that this fence was built, it was too expensive to continue,\" says Border Patrol spokesman Joshua Devack. The mountains are a natural barrier that, he says, \"a lot of crossers choose not to climb. ...

It was \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/11/11/501778485/obama-not-expected-to-push-congress-on-trans-pacific-p\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">never ratified by the U.S.\u003c/a> because of congressional opposition but was strongly backed by the Obama administration. It would create a free trade area stretching from Japan to Chile, and it was seen as an effort to create a counterweight to China, which is not a party to the agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the campaign, Trump called the TPP “a horrible deal” and a “potential disaster” that would hurt U.S. workers and companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His action on TPP is Trump’s first effort to address the concerns over trade that helped propel him to the Oval Office, and there are many more expected. He is expected to begin talks to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement with Canada and Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a meeting with business leaders Monday morning, Trump said, “We want to make our products here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also vowed to retaliate against businesses that close U.S. factories in favor of foreign plants. “If you go to another country,” Trump said, “we are going to be imposing a very major border tax.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump said that right now, “we don’t have free trade because we’re the only one that makes it easy to come into the country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Just one day after President Trump's inauguration, marchers from across the country have gathered in the city to protest his agenda and support for women's rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The event opened with a rally, to be followed by the march proper -- which had a path laid out from a starting position near the U.S. Capitol to its endpoint near the Washington Monument.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/wmata/status/822841417475223552\" target=\"_blank\">city's metro system reported\u003c/a> 275,000 rides as of 11 a.m. According to metro officials that's eight times more than a normal Saturday. Reuters adds that the number is also \"82,000 more than the 193,000 rides reported at the same point on Friday,\" the day of Trump's inauguration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, the number of marchers swelled to the point of prompting \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/AP/status/822877240790749184\" target=\"_blank\">reports there would be no space\u003c/a> for a formal procession -- a claim rebutted by organizers Saturday afternoon in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are marching,\" reads the statement. \"We are marching straight ahead toward the Washington Monument to the ellipse of the White House.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The event grew from humble origins -- a \u003ca href=\"http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-women-idUSKBN13U0GW\" target=\"_blank\">simple Facebook invitation\u003c/a> after Election Day — to the much more massive demonstration seen Saturday.

"info": "The MindShift podcast explores the innovations in education that are shaping how kids learn. Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
