The Global Consequences of US Climate and Weather Data Cuts
Date: Tuesday, September 9th, 2025 Location: Online Only
Significant changes underway in many US federal agencies are resulting in the loss of scientific information on climate change, weather, and disaster prevention globally.
Early warning systems used by scientists and forecasters worldwide to track and prevent floods, hurricanes, and famine, for example, have gone dark or are under threat. This webinar will spotlight how these recent changes are impacting researchers around the world who use US data across sectors, scientific disciplines, and geographies. We will share insights from the ISR’s aggregated survey results regarding the broader effect of the American government’s reductions in weather and climate data collection, analysis, and reporting.
