Two scientific groups say they will continue to evaluate the American climate

The major science groups said on Friday that it will publish a work in the country’s main report on climate change, a project in which the Trump administration was given to forget. Hundreds of scholars rejected Those who were working on it.

The American Geophysical Union and the US Meteorological Association said they will originally publish work for evaluation in their magazines, if the authors choose to do so.

“It is necessary to guarantee us our societies, neighbors and children are all protected and equipped with the risks of climate change,” said Brandon Jones, President of the Federation and Director of the Program at the National Science Corporation. “This cooperation provides a decisive path for a wide range of researchers to meet and provide the necessary science to support the solutions to the World Climate Change Foundation.”

The national climate evaluation is a comprehensive review of the latest climate science that measures how climate change affects the country and what can be done to adapt its effects and mitigation. There were five posts Since 2000. The sixth edition was scheduled to be published in early 2028.

The statement issued by the American Geophysical Union and the US Meteorological Association said that the new effort will not replace the federal report, which was assigned to the Congress.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. When the authors of the National Climate Evaluation, known as NCA6, said the email they received that “the scope of the report is currently being re -evaluated according to the 1990 Global Change Research Law.” This legislation created the American global change research program, where the administration Cut the employees and funds In April.

It is not clear whether the administration will continue to evaluate in a revised model, try to defraud and completely abolish Congress, or follow another path.

“This effort cannot be replaced NCA6, which is subject to general public and governmental review,” said Jason West, an environmental scientist at North Carolina University who led the air quality branch in the previous evaluation. “However, it gives the author’s teams that have already started work to complete and spread their work.”

The authors in the report were working for about a year planning their chapters, which covered topics including updating climate models and urban air conditioners.

The scientists highlighted that the national climate evaluation of its kind in its breadth, depth and accuracy, and that the government’s role in publishing has presented in the past the weight and credibility of the report.

The scientists said that the presence of their volunteer roles suddenly and a brief cancellation was frustrated. For some, the announcement issued by scientific societies was a welcome sign that their work could Press To spread their work.

“The AGU/AMS effort can support momentum in climate science after the recent setbacks,” said Costa Samaras, a civilian engineer at the University of Carnegie Mellon, who would have led the climate mitigation chapter. “It is a reminder that science cannot be stopped.”
