Trump Targets Climate Science Guidance

The dispute has broadened beyond removal of the judicial chapter: reporting now says a National Academies climate-attribution chapter was also removed during review, while the administration considers funding penalties against the institution.

The story now emphasizes an active counter-campaign: Democratic attorneys general and scientific organizations are pushing to restore the removed climate chapter, while the park-materials dispute is framed as a court-ordered restoration of interpretive content. The current version also adds sharper attribution by naming the chapter’s critics as alleging fossil-fuel bias and the authors as defending it as neutral, peer-reviewed background.
