Major reports about how climate change affects the US are removed from websites

The Trump administration took down the website hosting the most recent National Climate Assessment in 2023, making the report unavailable online.
This action followed the Trump administration firing staff and halting work on the next edition, despite a 1990 law requiring a climate assessment every four years.
The National Climate Assessment, coordinated by NOAA and widely used by officials and citizens, provided detailed, localized data on climate impacts including wildfires and sea level rise.
Climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe called it “the primary source” for agencies preparing for climate impacts, while John Holdren labeled the removals part of a “horrifying big picture.”
The removal of these peer-reviewed, legally mandated reports complicates climate planning and public awareness, increasing risks from evolving climate threats nationwide.
