The authors of the national climate assessment are released by Trump Administration

The Trump government dismissed the hundreds of scientists and experts who created the flagship of the federal government about how global warming affects the country.

The step brings the future of the report, which is required by the congress and is referred to as a national climate evaluation, in serious danger, according to experts.

Since 2000, the federal government has published a comprehensive look with rising temperatures every few years, which affect human health, agriculture, fishing, water supply, transport, energy generation and other aspects of the US economy. The last climate assessment was published in 2023 and is used by state and local governments and private companies to prepare for the effects of heat waves, floods, droughts and other air -conditioned disasters.

On Monday, researchers across the country who had started working on the sixth national climate evaluation, which were planned for early 2028, received an email in which they were informed that the scope of the report was currently being re-evaluated “and that all participants were released.

“We are now publishing all current rating participants from their roles,” says the e -mail. “If plans for the evaluation develop, there may be future opportunities to make a contribution or to get involved. Thank you for your service.”

For some of the authors, this seemed to be a fatal blow for the next report.

“This is as close as a termination of the evaluation,” said Jesse Keenan, professor at Tulane University, who specializes in climate adaptation and was the co-author of the last climate evaluation. “If you get rid of everyone involved, nothing moves forward.”
