He says he lost his job after blowing the whistle on efforts to destroy weather and climate change documents – as a new startup lobbies Congress for their project to spray sunlight-reflecting particles into the atmosphere. Mabie was fired after more than a dozen years at the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences, a research center operated by NOAA and the University of Colorado Boulder. He joins Dr. Drew to explain what happened to the data he was trying to preserve and how the case connects to a broader push for geoengineering. weather modification, and&nbsp;the Stardust project.
