The #EPA has ordered scientists in at least one of its #research offices to immediately pause almost all efforts to publish research….
Staff from the EPA’s Office of #Water were summoned to a meeting this week & instructed to halt work on most ongoing papers. The researchers were told that unless scientific journals had already returned proofs — the final step in the academic publication process — the studies would be subject to a new review process….
The order…came from political appointees….
