We Need a Strong and Independent NOAA to Protect Our Lives and Homes from Climate Change

As the climate crisis continues to escalate, the role of federal agencies dedicated to safeguarding our health and environment becomes increasingly crucial. One such agency facing threats is the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which provides essential scientific data to protect us from climate change and other environmental dangers.

The recent onslaught of heat waves, hurricanes, flooding, and wildfires across the United States underscores the importance of the work done by NOAA. From providing advanced meteorological forecasts to assessing global climate patterns, the agency’s approximately 11,000 employees play a vital role in saving lives and protecting communities.

However, the future of NOAA is in jeopardy due to Project 2025 – a blueprint proposed by the Heritage Foundation for the second Trump administration. If implemented, Project 2025 could dismantle, downsize, or privatize NOAA, putting valuable services at risk.

NOAA’s various divisions are instrumental in monitoring and understanding climate change, collaborating with communities to enhance resilience, and providing critical data for decision-making. For example, the Climate Adaptation Partnerships program works with researchers and decision-makers to address climate risks such as storms, droughts, and wildfires. Additionally, NOAA’s National Hurricane Center and National Weather Service play crucial roles in issuing alerts and forecasts to protect lives and property.

The agency’s Oceanic and Atmospheric Research program conducts foundational climate science research, while the National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service operates satellite programs that monitor weather conditions globally. These efforts provide essential data for preparing and responding to extreme weather events.

Despite NOAA’s non-partisan role in producing scientific data, Project 2025 proposes to dismantle the agency and privatize its functions. This could have far-reaching consequences, as climate-related events do not adhere to state boundaries and require nationwide data collection and analysis for accurate forecasting.

Privatizing NOAA’s services, as suggested by Project 2025, raises concerns about accountability, service quality, and equitable access to critical data. Recent experiences with privatizing essential services like electricity in Puerto Rico have highlighted the risks of such endeavors.

In a time when climate change poses unprecedented challenges, agencies like NOAA are more important than ever. Their research, policies, and environmental protections are essential for building a sustainable and just future. The second Trump administration must prioritize the preservation of NOAA’s mission to protect against climate impacts and safeguard public health and safety.

It is crucial to defend NOAA against political interference and ensure that it continues to provide unbiased, science-based data for informed decision-making. The agency’s contributions in mitigating climate risks and protecting communities are invaluable and must be safeguarded for the benefit of current and future generations.
