Mass Dismissal Email Reveals Trump Admin Fired Entire National Climate Report Team

In a jaw-dropping move, the Trump administration has dismissed every single contributor to the National Climate Assessment (NCA)—a congressionally mandated report that guides how the U.S. prepares for climate change. The email, sent Monday and obtained by Reuters, abruptly cut ties with nearly 400 scientists, leaving the fate of the sixth NCA, due in 2028, hanging by a thread. The climate study, once a unified effort by 14 federal agencies, now finds itself leaderless after the administration also dismantled the Global Change Research Program overseeing it.

This isn’t just a bureaucratic reshuffle. The last report, published in 2023, showed climate change is driving up insurance, food, and healthcare costs. That data once shaped real policy and funding decisions. Now? Silence from the White House—and celebration from Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation’s far-right blueprint influencing Trump’s agenda. Their goal: gut federal science and reshape the NCA with "scrutinized" contributors who align more with politics than peer-reviewed research. If you’re wondering who’s going to tell America what’s coming next with climate change, right now, the answer is: no one.
