Cities lose “critical guidance” from climate report: former NOAA official
Cities across the country may soon lose one of their most important tools for climate planning. The Trump administration has dismissed hundreds of scientists working on the next National Climate Assessment, halting a congressionally mandated report relied on by planners, engineers, and local officials.

Critics fear the move could politicize science and set back America’s climate readiness by decades. Robyn Griggs Lawrence with SmartCitiesDive has the full story.
