US EditionEnergy Chief Suggests Trump Administration Is Altering Previously Published Climate Reports
UNITED STATES, AUG 6 – The Trump administration’s new report disputes climate risks and aims to rescind EPA’s Endangerment Finding, prompting a scientific rebuttal and controversy over regulatory authority.
- Last week, Energy Secretary Chris Wright released a DOE report commissioned in March that questions climate risks alongside a proposed repeal of the EPA's Endangerment Finding.
- Under the current administration’s regulatory changes, the DOE report was produced in two months, and EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin announced plans to rescind the Endangerment Finding last week.
- Wright played a large role in commissioning a federal report authored by five well-known climate contrarians, produced in just two months and claiming `Climate change is a challenge — not a catastrophe`.
- Scientists are preparing to rebut the updated National Climate Assessments, which the Trump administration recently removed from government websites, condemning its errors and omissions.
- The moves position the administration as aiming to deny climate risks, as President Donald Trump’s administration claims to undermine scientific consensus and dismantle clean energy policies.
