We damn well know the reason, right? As the New York Times article from 7-1-25, linked in this Realclimate.org article, indicates in the headline *"National Climate Report Website Goes Dark." * A screenshot of this development is copied at the bottom here. However, this NY Times article is not fully "open access." When I clicked on the link off the Realclimate.org website, I could not read it without jumping through hoops However, when clicking on the *"For some reason"* option that is copied below, with the words* "some reason" *colored red to indicate they link to the New York Times article just mentioned, the full article was now "open access." Weird! But the Realclimate.org article is fully open access, with comments from readers of Realclimate.org. This article offers options to still find these climate assessments. A few quotes from the article are copied below: https://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2025/07/national-climate-assessment-links/ For some reason , it has become hard to locate the various National Climate Assessments (NCAs) that have been produced by the USGCRP over the decades (and it?s pretty hard to find the USGRCP as well?). However, the reports are still accessible if you know where to look. So for future reference, here are all the links (and we?ve downloaded the pdfs locally so that they will always be available here). David says 21 Jul 2025 at 10:05 PM Thank you for doing this. Don?t have any polite words for why it seems okay in D.C. to ignore that NCA6 remains still required by LAW. Guess Article I of the U.S. Constitution doesn?t seem to matter much these dark days, so I?ll just again say thank you for this. -------------------------------------------------------------- [image: On the left, a screenshot of globalchange.gov from June 29, archived by the Internet Archive.
