Former NOAA staffers launched climate.us in June 2026 to replace the federal climate information site climate.gov that was taken offline under the Trump administration. The new site, built by a team that includes Rebecca Lindsey, re-creates the old climate dashboard and restores about 15 years of climate news, expert blogs, visual status reports on key climate indicators, maps and data pathways, and classroom and climate literacy resources. Climate.us also preserves material on hurricanes, extreme weather, and other trusted climate research the group says was removed from the government site. NOAA’s climate.gov now redirects to NOAA.gov/climate and no longer hosts the original collection. The relaunch is positioned as an independent, volunteer-run resource to keep public climate data and educational materials available outside federal control.
