Trump Dismisses Scientists Writing the National Climate Assessment

Trump Dismisses Scientists Writing the National Climate Assessment
SHARE

The Trump administration has made a controversial move by dismissing hundreds of scientists who were working on the National Climate Assessment, a crucial report that outlines the increasing risks of climate change. This decision has raised concerns about the future of climate science and the potential for pseudoscience to fill the void left by the experts.

The National Climate Assessment, which is mandated by Congress, is a comprehensive report that provides valuable insights into the impact of rising temperatures on the environment, public health, and infrastructure. The report is used to inform policy decisions, legislation, and planning for future projects. With approximately 400 researchers typically contributing to the report, it is considered a vital source of information on how climate change is affecting the country.

However, the Trump administration abruptly halted work on the sixth installment of the report, sending a note to researchers informing them of the decision. The move has been met with criticism from climate scientists, who emphasize the importance of understanding the implications of climate change on a national scale.

Rachel Cleetus, a senior policy director at the Union of Concerned Scientists, expressed concern over the administration’s decision, stating that burying the report will not change the scientific facts about climate change. She warned that without this crucial information, the country risks facing a future marred by the devastating effects of human-caused climate change.

The administration’s plan to revise the scope of the National Climate Assessment aligns with a proposal by White House budget director Russ Vought, who aims to select a new group of researchers to produce a report that downplays the seriousness of climate change. This proposal has sparked fears that the report may focus on highlighting perceived benefits of climate change rather than addressing its detrimental effects.

Despite the dismissal of the scientists working on the assessment, some researchers have pledged to continue their work independently. Bob Kopp, a climate scientist at Rutgers University and a contributor to the report, expressed a desire to ensure that Americans have access to an evidence-based assessment of the country’s climate.

The future of the National Climate Assessment remains uncertain as the administration considers its next steps. It is crucial for policymakers, experts, and the public to have access to accurate and reliable information on climate change to make informed decisions and take proactive measures to address this pressing issue.

The original article was sourced from E&E News and provided essential insights into the challenges facing climate science in the current political landscape. It is imperative to support science journalism and prioritize the dissemination of factual information to combat misinformation and promote evidence-based decision-making.
