(US) tell congress you want NSF funding to grow, not cut in half.
(US) tell your state gov to start (resume, really) funding state colleges and growing their research offices.
(World) tell your government to increase research funding and support recruiting efforts. Help people get out and continue to do good work.
(All) consider donations and support for professional societies around academics. (Not just in the US; I suspect strengthening these institutions world wide will help.)
(All) let folks know that the US government is gutting weather reporting, basic research (in basically every field), training for future researchers, and ending experiments that have been running for decades. If there is a cool thing you’d like to see in the future, chances are a republican just broke it.
(Folks with far too much money; kinda shocked you’re on here) donate to colleges to create grad student/postdoc/faculty positions. Earmark it carefully so that additional positions are created instead of administrators relabeling previous positions to move money around.
