US EditionScientists team up to publish climate assessment gutted by Trump
- Two leading U.S. Scientific organizations announced a collaboration to produce peer-reviewed research on climate change impacts in the United States after the Trump administration disrupted the federally mandated National Climate Assessment process.
- This collaboration emerged after the Trump administration dismissed approximately 400 researchers involved in producing the federally mandated National Climate Assessment and began reconsidering and reducing funding for the report.
- The National Climate Assessment, required by a 1990 law and published every four to five years, documents climate change harms including increased extreme events, health risks, and projections up to 100 years ahead.
- AGU President Brandon Jones stated, "We are filling in a gap in the scientific process," and climate scientist Donald Wuebbles warned that watering down the report will not stop climate science messaging.
- Their effort aims to sustain climate science momentum and supply critical data for communities and policymakers despite political setbacks and a National Climate Assessment delay until around 2027.
