To the editor: Of all the weather of the present administration that concern me, I discover probably the most pernicious to be the push to suppress goal science relating to local weather change (“Trump administration shuts down U.S. website on climate change,” July 1).
From the scrubbing of any point out of local weather change from countless government websites to draconian cuts to Nationwide Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and NASA analysis budgets to the summary dismissal in April of greater than 400 specialists getting ready a congressionally mandated Nationwide Local weather Evaluation report — and to this newest closure of the U.S. International Change Analysis Program’s web site — President Trump doesn’t simply cease at modifying near-term vitality insurance policies. He chooses as a substitute to bury the very information that we have to inform our long-term methods for shielding our planet and making certain that will probably be a liveable house for our kids and grandchildren. We have to demand that our Congress push again on this and be sure that goal science information continues to information our nationwide local weather coverage.
