Brought to you by the team that built Climate.gov
For nearly 15 years, NOAA Climate.gov was the U.S. government’s premier platform for climate information for the public. In the first half of 2025, NOAA terminated Climate.gov’s full-time federal and contractor staff, shutting down the site's daily operations.
Now, former members of the Climate.gov team have joined together with nonprofit partners to launch Climate.us: a successor to Climate.gov outside the federal domain, where we can safeguard climate information from political interference.
This proves it can be done without a government.
Sure, it is easier when you force everyone to finance your projects and ideas with mandatory taxes, but in the end it always becomes nobody's project and a vulgar tool for manipulation, self-enrichment, controlling others, and creating divisions. Even if it is harder, the only way is to create independent groups that grow one member at a time, joining voluntarily. This is how societies can evolve, slowly but surely.
IMO, this is one positive effect of the Trump administration: removing political interference from ideas and projects. Let the people choose what ideas and projects they want to promote and invest in. The Trump administration might just be the terrible storm we needed to go through before the better days.
