Major US Government Website Could Be Shut Down After Mass Layoffs
- The Trump administration fired the entire content production staff of Climate.gov on May 31, a key NOAA-operated climate information website.
- This action followed months of funding cuts and political appointee decisions aimed at disabling publicly accessible climate science communication.
- Climate.gov provided reliable climate data vital for farmers, businesses, and homeowners and answered misinformation, but now will stop new content after July 1.
- Rebecca Lindsey, former program manager, called the firings "a very deliberate, targeted attack," and Tom Di Liberto said, "It's targeted, I think it's clear."
- The site’s shutdown implies decreased public access to climate facts, hindering preparedness for climate impacts and risking misinformation spread.
