Trump Orders U.S. Scientists to Skip Key IPCC Climate Report Meeting

Trump Orders U.S. Scientists to Skip Key IPCC Climate Report Meeting
SHARE

The Trump administration’s recent decision to withdraw from global climate action is causing significant disruptions in the scientific community. The abrupt retreat is now threatening to delay a crucial scientific report that is essential for countries to shape their responses to rising temperatures.

Delegates from over 190 countries gathered in Hangzhou, China, this week to discuss the content and timing of the seventh assessment report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The IPCC evaluates the science behind climate change and provides valuable insights into the sources of greenhouse gas emissions, the impact of pollution on the planet, and the risks associated with inaction. These assessments play a crucial role in assessing whether countries are making sufficient efforts to reduce emissions, a key component of the Paris climate agreement.

The absence of the U.S. delegation at the IPCC meeting, following President Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris agreement, has raised concerns about potential delays in the preparation of the assessment. The Trump administration’s move to prevent federal scientist Katherine Calvin from attending the meeting, where she was co-chairing one of the working groups, has further exacerbated the situation. The technical support unit that was assisting the working group has also been halted, leading to potential delays in the assessment’s preparation.

The U.S. withdrawal from global climate engagement, including skipping crucial meetings like the Green Climate Fund board meeting, has raised alarms among delegates and advocates. Concerns were already mounting over potential delays in the IPCC’s seventh assessment cycle due to disagreements over the report’s timeline. The High-Ambition Coalition, comprising countries like the United Kingdom, Germany, and the European Union, emphasized the importance of incorporating the latest scientific findings into the Paris Agreement process.

The lack of U.S. support for the IPCC process, including the absence of technical support units, could create significant challenges in completing the assessment on time. While there are possibilities for other countries to step in and provide support, the disruption caused by the Trump administration’s actions cannot be underestimated. The long-term implications of downsizing federal government efforts in climate and energy programs are also concerning, as it could hinder global efforts to combat climate change.

The current situation highlights the need for continued international collaboration and support for scientific research to address the pressing challenges of climate change. The absence of U.S. participation in crucial scientific assessments like the IPCC’s seventh assessment report underscores the importance of global cooperation in tackling this urgent issue.
