Support Team Rubicon's mission. Our route clearance teams are moving towards Mobile, AL to stage. Our people are in the EOCs. In the next few days, you will probably receive numerous requests for donations due to another significant disaster. Think of this as that appeal. Why support Team Rubicon? Because we will use your donations to be on the ground first to assist those in immediate need. To echo my peers in Naval Aviation, “Speed is Life.” And your donation fuels our actions to be there fast. We are not an organization that will gather and distribute the funds later – we understand what is required (we've responded to weather events over 1300 times) and focus on what will need to be done. You can put fuel in our tanks. Curious if TR is delivering as promised? We measure it!

Global Shield hosted a Policy Summit on Global Catastrophic Risk yesterday, focused on the importance of implementation of the Global Catastrophic Risk Management Act (6 U.S.C. § 821) and how Congress can continue to advance global security and risk management. It was a fantastic and thought-provoking event! Joining us in this conversation were Mark E Green MD, Chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, Congresswoman Dina Titus, the original sponsor of the GCRMA, Stephanie D., Assistant Administrator for National Preparedness at FEMA, and Jason Matheny, President and CEO of RAND. A key theme from these speakers was the importance of the initial GCRMA report to improve our overall understanding of the risk profile and inform the necessary preparedness. This conversation was followed by a panel discussion featuring Anita Cicero, Deputy Director of Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, John M., Deputy Director of the Janne E. Nolan Center on Strategic Weapons at The Council on Strategic Risks, Henry H. Willis, Senior Policy Researcher at RAND, and Natalie Enclade of BuildStrong America. The speakers reminded us just how real the threats we face are, but they also impressed on the audience that there are many policy tools at our disposal to reduce risk proactively. Global Shield is looking forward to continuing to engage with these leaders and many others to improve the security of the United States in face of these major threats.

Excellent advice from the great team at NWS New Orleans!
