Trump Administration Plans to Break Up Premier Weather and Climate Research Center

Russell Vought, the White House budget director, called the laboratory a source of “climate alarmism.”

Excerpt: "Mr. Trump routinely mocks #ClimateChange as a hoax and his administration has labeled virtually all efforts to study climate change, reduce the level of dangerous greenhouse gases in the atmosphere or protect communities from the impacts of #GlobalWarming as 'alarmism.'

The administration said the center had supported what it called frivolous and ideological issues, such as research on how to protect wind turbines from hurricanes and a project to incorporate Indigenous knowledge into studies of how climate change would affect #CoastalCommunities.

"Yet experts said much of the center’s activities focused on basic atmospheric science that had little to do with political debates over climate change."
