US EditionMajor reports about how climate change affects the US are removed from websites
UNITED STATES, JUL 3 – Trump administration defunded and dismissed staff from the U.S. Global Change Research Program, causing removal of all National Climate Assessments and limiting access to critical climate data.
- The government website providing access to the latest National Climate Assessment, which includes important climate data for the U.S., became inaccessible on Monday, preventing public use.
- This took place after the Trump administration ended the involvement of all federal staff, dismissed the coordinating team, and terminated the contract with the private company overseeing the next report.
- Requests for information went unanswered by both NASA and the agency responsible for coordinating the assessments, while the primary climate-related website managed by NOAA was recently redirected to another NOAA page.
- Climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe emphasized that climate change is affecting the daily lives of everyone living in the United States, regardless of their awareness of these impacts, highlighting the critical significance of the report.
- The removal complicates state and local planning for climate impacts, and experts warned that hiding these peer-reviewed reports equates to censoring science and risks harm to communities.
