The Trump administration's recent dismissal of all scientists involved in the National Climate Assessment (NCA) generates significant concerns regarding the credibility of climate science. The NCA is a crucial report that is traditionally composed by around 400 researchers outlining the effects and dangers of climate change on the U.S. The decision to end work on the upcoming sixth installment leaves a gap in critical research used for policy-making and public understanding of climate impacts, potentially leading to the spread of misinformation and undermining scientific integrity.
The Trump administration's dismissal of all scientists working on the National Climate Assessment raises serious concerns about the future legitimacy of climate science and research.
By halting the sixth version of the National Climate Assessment, the administration undermines vital research that informs environmental policy and serves the public interest.
