NASA is elevating one of its top climate scientists to a new role, a move meant to put greater focus at the space agency on studying the causes and consequences of global warming under President Biden.
Gavin Schmidt, director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York, will serve in the newly created position of senior climate adviser. He is being brought on in an acting capacity until NASA’s incoming administrator, who has yet to be named, makes a permanent appointment. ....

The pathway out of the coronavirus pandemic is looking somewhat bumpier than it did one month ago.
Three more transmissible strains are threatening to prolong the United States’s struggle with the virus. These mutations are tempering hopes that life might start feeling more normal by the summer – even as the daily pace of immunizations accelerates.
“The road to herd immunity from the coronavirus suddenly looks longer,” our colleagues Joel Achenbach and Ariana Eunjung Cha report. “The emergence of more transmissible, potentially vaccine-evading variants threatens to extend the global health disaster and make 2021 feel too much like 2020.” ....

The Health 202: Healthcare.gov will now be open during tax season
Paige Winfield Cunningham
Aligning Obamacare enrollment with tax season would be a no-brainer, tax experts have long argued.
Now it’s actually happening, with President Biden’s order yesterday to reopen the federal health-care marketplace from Feb. 15 through May 15.
“President Biden signed an executive order Thursday to reopen the Affordable Care Act’s federal insurance marketplaces for three months to give Americans who need coverage during the coronavirus pandemic an extended chance to buy health plans,” our colleague Amy Goldstein reports.
“The action represents the first step the new administration is taking to fulfill a major part of the president’s campaign agenda to make health insurance and health care more accessible and affordable goals that have taken on more urgency as 25 million have been infected with the coronavirus and millions of others ....

The Energy 202: Biden stokes hope among climate scientists

The Energy 202: Biden stokes hope among climate scientists
Dino Grandoni
with Alexandra Ellerbeck
Climate scientists are dealing with a strange new feeling now that Joe Biden is president: optimism.
Gone are the days of outright hostility from the White House to climate science, as was the case during Donald Trump s presidency.
President Biden s early executive orders on climate change, say an array of chemists, biologists and social scientists, signal that this White House acknowledges their work toward understanding the causes and consequences of rising temperatures.
But they know it remains extraordinarily difficult to actually cut greenhouse gas emissions enough to stop dangerous warming, even with Biden as president. ....

President Biden is preparing a slew of executive orders Wednesday building out the new administration s agenda for tackling climate change, in what is being dubbed “Climate Day.
The moves on drilling for oil and gas, conserving nature and addressing the racial and economic disparities of pollution fulfill several campaign promises. They are meant to put the United States on the path to net-zero emissions by the middle of the century and come off the heels of Biden moving to rejoin the Paris climate accord and nix the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office. ....
