US EditionMajor reports about how climate change affects the US are removed from websites
UNITED STATES, JUL 3 – The Trump administration cut funding and staffing in April 2025, removing access to the National Climate Assessment website, which had published five reports since 2000, officials said.
- The websites hosting the National Climate Assessment reports, including the 2023 edition, have disappeared from federal sites, limiting public online access to these resources.
- This removal follows the Trump administration's 2023 actions to halt work on the 2027 report, fire all related staff, end contracts, and reroute NOAA's climate.gov website.
- The Assessment provided detailed peer-reviewed information guiding local projects like raising roads and building seawalls, and featured an interactive atlas zoomed to county level.
- Climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe called it a taxpayer-funded primary source helping agencies prepare, while Kathy Jacobs warned that its loss is tampering with facts and raises risks.
- The White House stated all five editions will be available on NASA's website to comply with the law, but NASA has not set a public release date, maintaining uncertain access.
